Click here for the Medium ESAPI-shaped IcePlate Curve
IcePlate Classic is our original plate carrier cooling, heating, and hydration hard bladder system for military and law enforcement plate carriers. It ergonomically holds 50 oz (1.5 L) of water and gives you control over your environment - keeping you safer, lighter, cooler (or warmer), and hydrated.
The science behind IcePlate Curve comes from more than two decades of research conducted by Stanford University, the US Army, USASOC, and the CDC on the effects of cooling on metabolic capacity, recovery, and heat injury prevention under PPE/MOPP and in athletics. If you'd like to read the full origin story of Qore Performance and how the IcePlate was born, click here.
