Everyday Concealable Carrier
The Everyday Concealable Carrier is an ideal choice for those seeking discreet armor with front and back coverage or wraparound protection for daily wear. Featuring 8 points of adjustment, it ensures a secure and comfortable fit. Designed to be worn over a t-shirt or compression shirt, and typically under a uniform or jacket, it offers versatile concealment. This carrier accommodates our Front/Back and Wraparound Soft Armor Inserts, which are also compatible with the VIP Soft Armor T-Shirt and our Standard LE Tactical Vest OR it can be outfitted with our Express Soft Armor Inserts for front and back protection.. The carrier includes internal front and rear pockets for 10”x12”x1” hard armor plates, and the front plate pocket has a 6”x8” section for a speed plate, providing enhanced protection.
How to adjust your Everyday Concealable Carrier:
Insert your armor into the carrier. The front and back armor is inserted along the top line on the exterior of the carrier. The wraparound armor is inserts on the inside of the front and back at the bottom by opening the zipper.
Loosen the waist straps/cummerbund, then put the carrier on
Adjust the shoulder straps so that the lowest part of the “neck” of the front panel is the same height as your sternum notch at the top of your breastbone
Align the bottom edge of the back panel to be the same level as the front panel
Affix the shoulder straps
Adjust the waist straps or cummerbund for a snug fit, making sure the sides of the FRONT PANEL overlap the rear panel
Once set, you shouldn’t have to adjust your shoulder straps again unless you significantly change what you’re wearing under the carrier. As long as the front and rear panels are at the correct height, you’re good to go.
How to install a speed plate or armor plate
Open the “hidden” plate pocket on the front or rear of the vest, located in the velcro covered area in the upper portion of the vest’s front and rear
- If using a 10”x12” hard armor plate
- Slide the 10”x12” into the carrier, making sure the label of the plate is toward the user
If using a 6”x8” speed plate:
- Open the smaller plate pocket, located inside the larger plate pocket
- Slide the speed plate into the smaller pocket, and make sure it’s oriented properly. Close the velcro.
