Product Summary
The Condor Sentry Plate Carrier is a minimal-bulk, high-performance tactical vest with full adjustability for a custom fit. The carrier’s durable, easily accessible plate pockets are specially designed to hold both medium and large ESAPI standard plates up to 10.25″ x 13.25″. You can order your vest on its own or with a set of compatible Rogue Weight Vest Plates (5.75LB and 8.75LB available)
Because it’s built for a comfortable fit and greater range of motion, the Sentry Plate Carrier is well suited to a wide array of training programs. The adjustable sizing covers a waist size range of 30″ to 46″, and the vest is equipped with a number of unique features, including heavy-duty webbing for modular attachments, a padded mesh interior lining for optimal breathability, quick adjust cinches, and quick release buckles. Secure, front hook-and-loop webbing also allows for easy shoulder strap adjustments and the attachment or removal of the padded mesh shoulder pads. The vest is available here in black, tan, or olive drab.
