The extended-type plate carrier is made from ultra-durable Cordura 1000d material and equipped with a modern, convenient quick-release system. The OTAMAN plate carrier is designed based on the legendary American body armor – the IOTV 3, the same model used by the U.S.
Army during field operations. A distinctive feature of this plate carrier is its enlarged side and back sections. Due to this expansion and the extended upper part, the plate carrier with ballistic inserts provides almost full torso coverage, offering protection from all sides against fragments and various ballistic threats.
This plate carrier is suitable both for larger men and for slimmer users.
However, let’s also explain how to choose the right size:
Size M/L — suitable for people up to 175 cm tall with a chest circumference from 50 to 170 cm.
Size L/XL — suitable for people over 175 cm tall with a chest circumference from 60 to 180 cm.
Key advantages of the plate carrier:
-
Durability:
The plate carrier is made from CORDURA 1000 — a fire-resistant and ultra-strong fabric resistant to abrasion (over 50,000 cycles). It is non-flammable, invisible to night vision devices, and water-resistant. The quick-release system allows the vest to be removed in seconds if needed. -
Comfort:
The vest is designed to redistribute weight from the shoulders to the back and abdominal muscles — unlike most traditional designs. This ensures long-term comfort and reduced fatigue, allowing you to stay in the vest longer without strain.
