Another main thing to keep in mind with sizing plates/carriers is you fit the plate to your body (using the placement described here, clavicular notch to above belly button, nipple to nipple) and then you size the plate bag to the armor. Also potentially need to consider the cut of the armor for some carriers (SAPI, shooter's/swimmer's cut). The Thorax accommodates SAPI profile, which should fit lower cut plates as well. Great looking product and info to go along with it.
@@Cynthia_Blackraven_666 The Ice plate carrier is cool, but I don't think people realize how cheaply that thing is made, not in terms of quality, but in terms of ease of manufacturing. It is way overpriced as it definitely costs less to make than a condor plate carrier. Haleys setup is well under that.
@@ripley4601 HRT Rac is meh at best, LBX Arm 2 is a MEPC with weird and akward foam (i hate it when sweating), Scarab LT i solid, and the crye AVS is amazing and prob the best load bearing PC on the market but just have to deal with CRYE wait times or paying for the convenience fee of dealing with a re-seller.
@@Extremekhan24 The RAC is widely considered one of the best PC's on the market. I don't know if I believe you have enough experience to make such judgements on every PC I mentioned. Maybe you have tried them out, and have an initial impression of them, but it's difficult for me to believe that you just happen to have a lot of time with fout very specific PC's I listed. There are budget AVS clones that are close in quality to the Crye version, but less expensive and actually in stock.
Will you be adding more spec information to the website? Currently it's difficult to gauge best sizing apart from the sizing chart on the instruction manual, especially for those with borderline measurements. Like you mentioned you're on the upper range and you said it depends on what you want out of it (i.e. what kind of accessories you plan on attaching, snug vs looser preference). If your measurement is 41/42 is a Medium still versatile enough to accommodate varying fits? Or should you opt for a Large and will that still be snug enough if your preferences change?
need to know. your website and videos don't really give a dimensions for what plates the carriers can accept for example i got the medium thorax plate carrier looking into getting plates now. need to know if the carrier can accept plates with the dimensions of (length of 12.25) (width of 9.25) it only mentions the thickness on the website that i seen. please answer asap thanks!
Our plate bags are designed around SAPI plate dimensions. Our large bag fits Large SAPI sized plates like a glove. A large SAPI plate is 10.25"x 13.25". Hesco large 210's are 10"x12".
Hey Admin, I mean Haley, dude you know what would be awesome, giving me, I mean someone a loadout that couldn't afford it otherwise, because of these two tech addicted kids whom have to have every latest system, not just one, but the newest from every company!!! Lmfao, spending good money on video games instead of guns and gear...BTW wtf is Minecraft ???

Nice video on helping people pick the right equipment. It's really good to see a company with such professionalism.
I hope they make a small variant soon. Smol bois like me need it!
Fully expect this to be the best carrier on the market
Nah. The HRT RAC, LBX Armatus 2, Velocity Systems Scarab LT, Agile K19, and Crye AVS are leagues above everything else.
Ice plate exoskeleton >> all

That second clip with the NVG looks DEADLY
I see you completely neglected my idea for the Lorax Plate Carrier…
INB4 the NPE version is called the Lorax (Low-profile Thorax)
I'm so fat mine will be the Snorlax plate carrier

Best Gear Made, wish I still had my issued shit....or at least a plate carrier, chest rig and war belt.
Thank you Haley very cool

So will this work for a 11x14 plate?
The medium DNFDR plate is 9.5"x12.5" and the large plate is 10.25"x13.25" which fits like a glove inside our plate bags.
@@HaleyStrategicPartners okay....So is that a no for XL Sapi plates?
@@adamgriffin I bought mine recently and fabric is stretchy so my guess it will be tight fit but I bet you can fit it.
@@HaleyStrategicPartners Will the medium plate bag fit shooters cut 10X12?

did you ever get an answer to this? im wondering the same thing
@@zach1337zach I had to send a question to the people over there. That's the only way to get all the dimensions you're looking for.
@@MrFalllen what dimensions for the bags did they give you if you dont mind me asking
Why did you guys only go with medium and large sizes?
That's currently our most requested sizes but we may expand in the near future
Am I able to run issued ESAPI plates ICW soft armor?
yes soft armor backers will fit.
Will the thorax come with a nsn?
customersupport@haleystrategic.com can help you with that.
Was he demonstrating with the medium or large plate bags?
Medium
So what size carrier for hesco large l210s
Our plate bags are designed around SAPI plate dimensions. Our large bag fits Large SAPI sized plates like a glove. A large SAPI plate is 10.25"x 13.25". Hesco large 210's are 10"x12".
@1:41 - Me: It’s ok. I’m at the far end of the spectrum too, buddy…oh wait nvm. Not what he meant.
