I have to admit, I never knew shoulder pads like these existed until recently, and they have completely transformed my experience with carrying heavy loads. These plate carrier shoulder pads have made a world of difference for me! First off, the opening hook and loop design is fantastic. It fits snugly on my shoulder straps, which are about 2 inches wide. I’ve used them with various vests and bags, including FCS, LBT, and JPC vests, as well as my backpack and even car seat belts. The hook inside the pad creates just enough friction to prevent any unwanted movement along the strap, which is a huge plus. What I love most about these shoulder pads is how lightweight and breathable they are. Made from 900D polyester with a PU coating, they are waterproof and allow for great heat dissipation. The honeycomb design really helps manage the weight I’m carrying by distributing it evenly across my shoulders. This feature not only makes carrying heavy loads much more manageable but also provides excellent shock absorption. In terms of size, these pads measure 8.5 inches long by 2.5 inches wide and weigh just 0.137 pounds, making them easy to add without adding unnecessary bulk. Another great feature is the three loops for attaching accessories. The Molle-type attachment spots are perfectly spaced at about 1 inch apart, with the center one being elastic and the end ones made of durable nylon weave. This allows me to easily access items I need on the go, which is incredibly convenient. Overall, I can’t recommend these shoulder pads enough! They’ve made carrying heavy loads a breeze and have significantly improved my comfort during long outings. If you’re looking for a way to enhance your carrying experience, these shoulder pads are definitely worth considering!

Added these to my tactical backpack for rucking 24kg, I needed these as they save my shoulders so much

A little stiff, but very thick and comfortable

Not practical at all. Too hard and solid that it doesn’t hold on the shoulders. Not comfortable as described. A total waste. Not recommended

I added these to my plate carrier workout vest with 17 pounds of plates and it made a big difference. The plate carrier rides nicer and the weight is better distributed so that the straps don't hurt the shoulders. Super easy to install as they just wrap around the strap and are secured with strong hook/loop (Velcro). They even have Molle loops for a small clip light or something.
