5.11 Tactical Prime Plate Carrier (Color: Black / Large)

The 5.11 Tactical Prime Plate Carrier is a mission-ready, fully modular plate carrier engineered to meet the demands of law enforcement, military professionals, and tactical fitness enthusiasts alike. Whether you’re operating in low-visibility environments or need a full tactical setup, this scalable carrier delivers unmatched versatility, comfort, and durability—all backed by the trusted performance of the 5.11 Tactical brand.

Modular Design for Ultimate Flexibility

Built for adaptability, the Prime Plate Carrier is fully scalable, transforming from a slick, minimalist setup into a complete tactical rig with ease. The front and rear panels feature hook-and-loop surfaces, allowing you to attach Gear Set™ accessories, Flex Hook Adapters, morale patches, or mission-critical gear. This customization lets you tailor your loadout for rapid response, heavy missions, or streamlined movement.

The included AMPC Pack adaptors expand your capability even further, making it easy to integrate additional load-bearing systems without compromising the carrier’s clean profile. From plate carrier workouts to field ops, the Prime Plate Carrier moves with you.

Comfort Meets Performance

Comfort is key in any mission scenario. That’s why the 5.11 Prime Plate Carrier is equipped with padded body panels and a stretch-woven inner lining. This breathable interior promotes airflow, reducing heat and moisture buildup during high-intensity tasks or extended wear. The adjustable shoulder straps are designed to lie flat for low profile use and allow for quick adjustment on the fly—whether you’re tightening up for a secure fit or loosening for comfort between missions.

An adjustable waist belt with elastic webbing and quick-release S/R buckles ensures the carrier fits securely across a wide range of body types (sizes S–4XL). You’ll enjoy enhanced freedom of movement while maintaining load stability in the field or on the range.

Plate Compatibility and Load-Bearing Strength

Sized to fit a large ESAPI plate, the Prime Plate Carrier also includes a retention strap to secure small or medium-sized plates. This adaptability means you can configure the plate carrier for different mission requirements or use it as a fitness weight vest when plates are inserted.

Whether for tactical use or physical training, the durable nylon shell and reinforced stitching ensure long-lasting performance under pressure. The lightweight profile keeps bulk to a minimum without compromising protection or plate security.
