Collection: Chest Rigs (all)

Plate carriers are designed to carry protective plates and offer protection against projectiles, while a chest rig is more intended for use with low protection requirements.

Yes, chest rigs are also popular for civilian applications such as airsoft, paintball or outdoor activities such as hiking and hunting. They offer a practical way to carry equipment compactly and within easy reach.

When making your selection, consider the amount and type of gear you plan to carry and the environment you will be using. For longer deployments, padded shoulder straps are recommended, and a MOLLE system offers flexibility for gear organization.
