Templar's Gear CPC/CIBV Enhanced Comfort Pads for Plate Carriers, M05

Comfortably Numb The shoulder pads by Templar's Gear offer nice, simple, basic cushioning for shoulder straps of basically any vest or plate carrier. There's nothing stopping you from using these with, for example, a suitcase or other similar strapped thing to cushion life's little bumps. These are the perfect accessory if you want to occasionally use the Cataphract vest without a collar! Features: Appropriately padded, i.e. sturdy and distributes weight, but adapts to the wearer and the vest. The padding can also be taken out, so you can even put small ballistic inserts in its place if you happen to find suitable ones! Inner surface made of breathable 3D mesh. Two openable loops for cable and hydration tube routing. Hook Velcro under the wings, i.e. if there is loop Velcro on the shoulder straps/strap, the pad attaches to it and locks in place. The ideal strap width is 40-50 mm, but in principle a strap up to 65 mm wide is suitable. With a strap less than 40 mm, the "wings" do not tighten completely around the strap, so if there is no Velcro on the bottom surface of the strap twisting might be an issue. Length 21.5 cm, width in the center 7.5 cm and at the widest part 8 cm. The thickness is around 1 cm. Main fabric 500 denier Foxdura. Weight per piece 38 g, so 76 g in total as these come in pairs. Materials & manufacturing The Templar’s Gear M05 products are manufactured from the Finnish Foxa 500 denier Foxdura fabric by using laser cut technology, which enabled us to reduce the weight of the gear without compromising reliability. The material meets the Finnish Defence Forces' requirements for IRR protection and the other materials are also IRR treated. This means that the products can be safely used even in situations where you need to be hidden in the IR spectrum! The laser cut PALS webbings are also extremely durable, because they don’t have stitches which are prone to wear and tear. Special attention has been paid to quality control in Templar’s pouches and gear, because a significant portion of the company’s customers are officials, whose safety and well-being might depend on the gear. Conscription in Finnish military Well, since someone’s going to ask anyway, let’s answer: we do not know if this gear can be used when you are in general conscription. If you want to be polite, you can ask your officer, if it’s okay to use your own gear. However, it’s usually easier to apologize later than to get permission. If necessary, we recommend you demonstrate the features of the gear, for example in the IR spectrum, where you can clearly prove that this gear has been made for military use and is not some Chinese knock-off. Cooperation - Yhteistyö - Współpraca Templar's Gear products are delivered to us straight from the factory in Poland. This means that our product selection is updated to the latest and greatest generation almost in real time as replenishments are ordered. Thanks to the close cooperation and our frequent orders, we also have a chance to forward feedback and new ideas to the respective designers. If you as a user have any ideas for product development, we are happy to share them with Templar's Gear. Extended three-year warranty Templar’s Gear products are granted a three-year warranty. In more concrete manner this means for example products sold on this spring will have warranty for three action packed seasons of airsoft, shooting or whatever you do with them. Warranty covers all problems that should arise from defective materials or poor craftsmanship. Carelessness or misuse voids the warranty. It’s been a long time coming – the M05 Tradesoft is proud to present the fruits of co-operation with Templar’s Gear: tactical combat gear with the Finnish M05 camouflage! The aim of this co-operation is to fill a torso-sized hole in the Finnish gear market: before this, it was not possible to have a full combat gear set available with the domestic M05 pattern. We had contemplated on acquiring M05 combat gear before, but had not found a suitable manufacturer before Templar’s Gear. The actual idea of this project was born in the fall of 2017 when the first Templar’s Gear products landed at our headquarters. After finding a suitable friend and partner in Poland, it was obvious that we had to present this gift to the airsoft/reserve forces/military/defence forces/SRA shooting communities and everyone interested in the Finnish camouflage pattern.
