[ OVERVIEW ]

ICEVENTS® Shoulder Pads bring load carrying and ventilation to the next level at an incredibly light weight.

BLUF:
ICEVENTS® Aero are for lighter, minimalist plate carrier setups, SOF and SWAT type applications.
ICEVENTS® Classic are for heavy, full duty/conventional combat loads loads and similar.

What is the difference between ICEVENTS® Classic and ICEVENTS® Aero plate carrier shoulder pads? (Deep Dive)

FAQ: Yes, ICEVENTS® products can be trimmed. We do not recommend this because you lose the super clean factory edge finish (and warranty, obviously), but if this doesn't matter to you, trim away.

*IMPORTANT NOTE ON APPLICATION/UNIFORM/APPAREL: Due to ICEVENTS® unique omnidirectional ventilation architecture and full width profile for heavy loads, ICEVENTS® Classic Shoulder Pads are designed to be worn with Combat Shirts and other duty-type uniforms with collars. Some users might be able to wear ICEVENTS® Classic with a t-shirt or other non-collared shirt depending on exact body type, setup preferences, and field worthiness. However, wearing ICEVENTS® Classic without a collar is not recommended. For shirts without a collar and/or lighter loads, we recommend ICEVENTS® Aero Minimalist Plate Carrier Shoulder Pads.

ICEVENTS® Classic Shoulder Pads are recommended for heavier, more protective plate carriers worn with full duty uniforms. If you are running a t-shirt or other low-collar shirt, we recommend ICEVENTS® Aero Plate Carrier Shoulder Pads.

IMPORTANT NOTE: All ICEVENTS® products across all packages/bundles in the entire ICEVENTS® Collection, use one of two footprints, ICEVENTS® Classic or ICEVENTS® Aero. The only two differences other than footprint, are the backing (PowerMesh, hook backed, hook-receptive loop backed) and the size (all pads are full size except holster pads which are half size).

[ SUPERIOR DESIGN ]

Designed for carrying heavy loads while maintaining an ultra thin, ultra light profile, these shoulder pads offer unparalleled ventilated comfort. The innovative honeycomb construction includes an omnidirectional ventilation architecture, providing extra relief during prolonged use.

ICEVENTS® Classic Shoulder Pads are ideal for use with Combat Shirts and other collared uniform shirt styles, they offer a perfect balance between protection and comfort.

ICEVENTS® Aero Shoulder Pads provide more relief around the neck than ICEVENTS® Classic Shoulder Pads and are better for those who wear T-Shirts or tops without a collar with their plate carriers.

[ VERSATILITY ]

One of the key features of these shoulder pads is their adaptability. Whether you're using them for a heavy loadout or a low-collar shirt, you'll find that the ICEVENTS® Plate Carrier Shoulder Pads deliver consistent performance. The added padding adapts to various body types and setup preferences, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of users.

[ QUALITY AND DURABILITY ]

The quality of these shoulder pads is second to none. Made in the USA from US materials, they exemplify durability and reliability. The patented design and thoughtful specifications, including a light weight and compact dimensions, contribute to their practicality and convenience.

[ FOCUS IN THE FIELD ]

Investing in a better plate carrier shoulder pad set does more than just alleviate discomfort, it improves your focus. The last thing you should be worried about during a mission or critical assignment is constantly adjusting your plate carrier shoulder straps. The ICEVENTS® Plate Carrier Shoulder Pads provide enhanced comfort and load dispersion, allowing you to keep your mind and body in peak condition in the field.

don't auto select five stars

Asking for a review, and auto-selecting five stars for me is a bit scummy, no?

Nice product. Bad implementation of the review process. You can do better.

We tried to set the default to six stars, but it wasn't available in our software. #StayFrosty

Worth it.

Intelligent decision to fit a canteen in a slim design. I couldn’t justify $50 for the ICEFLASK holster, so I utilized a normal radio pouch. For $17, the ICEFLASK Canteen is Slim, sleek and isn’t cumbersome, allowing full range of motion of arms while in kit. Definitely recommend. Qore, I recommend R&D focuses on something slim and sleek to fit flush with plates- or, for Recon purposes, something that coincides with both spaces on backside of kit but doesn’t take up the space of plate.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for taking the time to leave an honest reivew of your ICEFLASK™ experience. Regarding your suggestion, what you are describing is exactly the role filled by ICEPLATE® Curve, especially when paird with our IMS Pro Gen 3 with either a CATAMARAN Gen 3 to run under your plate carrier/armor or ICEPLATE® Backpack Gen 3 to run with a chest rig.

excellent

works great for 105 degree vegas heat when i do matches, also great as ice blocks in my yeti instead of gas station ice bags. good stuff

Ice Plate EXO Gen 3

Awesome product, very light weight and well ventilated. I ordered the plate bag with the AXL cumberbund with tubes and set up was easy. I am 5'7", 205lb, lift weights, so the plate bag fits and covers my torso the way it is supposed to. Only wish i had the option to order the Large cumberbund. There is room to mount the IMS pro gen 3 on the back, inside but the large cumberbund would give me a little more play room. But that's small stuff. Other than that, AWESOME product and AWESOME customer service..

Fantastic product, lasts for more than half a day keeping you cool and providing you with chilled water.

Awesome to hear Dan and thanks for sharing! #StayFrosty

Picture deceiving

I thought this came with the pads but it’s just the Velcro system

The CATAMARAN Gen 3 product page selection boxes are labeled 'Bag: Single or Pair' and the ICEVENTS® Pontoons selection box is labled 'CATAMARAN Gen 3 Panel Only or ICEVENTS® Pontoons Included.' We apologize if this was confusing, but if you could let us a know clearer way to state this, we'll be happy to look in to updating the labels!

Truly a better mousetrap! I didn’t know the water bottle needed the revamp it did. Finding new uses almost daily.

Outstanding Product

Totally satisfied with the product, stucked it in my bullet vest on duty and saved my day, because of its body shaped form, you cant feel it after 10min and it really cools you down and gives you the long run

Instagram Handle: None

It felt abrasive in the beginning, after 3 or 4 day of wearing that start to mold, but the glue between the velcro start to separate. It may need extra sew around it so it doesn't start to come apart

Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback on our ICEVENTS® Classic Plate Carrier Ventilation Pontoons. We apologize for the delamination - that is definitely not normal. Please contact our Customer Service Team and they'll get you squared away under our Forever Warranty. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy your ICEVENTS® Pontoons.

Hi Kelly,

Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review!

Versatile + Compatible	ICEVENTS® can be used for Plate Carriers, Duty Belts, Tool Belts, or countless other industrial or tactical equipment to deliver unrivaled end-user comfort. Their modular and flexible form makes it simple to adapt ICEVENTS® to support your application
Water Resistant + Anti-Microbial	ICEVENTS® unique channel ventilation creates an effective microclimate for long-term comfort and enhanced endurance
High Tech Materials	ICEVENTS® feature exclusive and proprietary Supracor Stimulite impact-absorbing hexagonal honeycomb thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) technology. Stimulite is used and proven in the F/A-18 Hornet, V-22 Osprey, 787 Dreamliner, 747-8 Intercontinental and leading medical products
Simple Installation	Hook and Loop accessories enable simple, custom installation
Increased Load Bearing Capacity	Loads are absorbed and dispersed evenly throughout the honeycomb matrix of ICEVENTS®. Because the cells are interconnected, when one cell buckles from impact, the walls of the adjacent cells also buckle to absorb the force, similar to a ripple effect. The fusion-bonded honeycomb in Stimulite absorbs shock in this manner and also has phenomenal load-bearing and load-balancing capability as a result of its elastomeric composition
