This thing is amazing! Not only does if keep things compact but sleek and slim as well.

Great for long weighted walks/runs in the Miami heat, lasted around 2-3 hours but the cold water to drink helps immensely.

Can't wait to use it in the National Guard so I don't have to suffer from the humidity and sun, I'd recommend it to my peers so they too don't have to suffer and increase our sustainability.

As the title says, this is more than universal. The mounting solutions they include allow you the ability to put it ANYWHERE.

The only thing that I wasn’t a fan of is that it is very hard to take the ice plate in and out of the sleeve. The Velcro to secure it is inside of the sleeve, so this makes it difficult to easily take the ice plate out to refill or clean. I ended up rigging up 4 Velcro straps that allow me to have the bottom flap on the outside of the sleeve. Now I have super quick access to remove and refill my water. Did the same thing with my friends sleeve.

The IMS Pro is a great system for mounting the ice plate. There’s many different ways to mount this and they all stay in place!

If your on the fence just do it you will not regret it. This is a great addition to any setup. When you think about it you have cooling or heating capabilities while also having half a days water streamlined into your gear with little or no additional drag. It's a smart and effective way to have your gear multitask without adding bulk.

Looking for a way to carry more water directly on my plate carrier and this is perfect. Fits just right on the back of my Crye SPC size M. I’m thinking about swapping places with the back plate and the hydration plate to try the cooling out. I don’t know why it wouldn’t work?

I want to say this seems to be a good product, however there are things that could make it better. First the pros;
- Love the design and shape going right along with the plate carrier. So much better than an odd shape water bladder.
- Love the hard, solid shape design over a soft bladder. Seems sturdy and not likely to lead like soft bladders always do.
- Really like the hose fittings and mouth pieces, better than the typical camelbak. Easy to take out the bladder and fill then re-attach.

Now to the cons.
- Low capacity. I wish the bladder was a bit thicker, closer to 1 inch thick so it is on par with the thicker ballistic plates. I wish this for two reasons, first to increase the water capacity and second so the carrier would be able to accommodate the thicker plates so you could switch out the plate and water bladder for the cooling benefit. Currently with my plates they don’t fit in the carrier for the bladder so I cannot use this for the cooling effect.

For what the product is, it is good but if there was some minor changes then it could be great.

I do kinda wish I bought the 15$ knock-off ice pack & sewed a molle carrier since I have the equipment & a background both in engineering & tailoring. I expected more. It gets 4 stars since I suspect it's more durable than the chinesium I could put in a diy carrier but that remains to be seen.

I used the iceplate with a esstac plate carrier and a lvl 4 steel plate in the rear bag with a lvl 4 ceramic in the front bag. As well as a magazine placard. I used this set up to do the Murph workout on memorial day. I was a bit skeptical how well it would work. Here to say that I was shocked about how the iceplate lessened my fatigue throughout the workout. In my opinion Qore is making super humans with thermal regulation. I'm in the process to get one of there carriers and plate combos
