A decade long pursuit of innovation has created the Ferro Concepts Plate Carrier (FCPC). It has maintained its status as the forefront of lightweight and adaptable plate carrier design. Largely because we just can’t leave the special operations community alone. What you see here today is the FCPC V5. The first 4 were awesome, don’t get us wrong…but we will constantly be leveling up whenever necessary. View Product Guide DESIGN Deliberate and precise pattern making to create a contoured framework for increased unity between the body and armor. These are fancy words to tell you that we know how the body moves AND we know how material moves. Combining that knowledge into the FCPC V5 makes it practically perfect with the potential to get better and better. MATERIALS Our 500D Cordura® laminate was created to be able to take serious abuse in real world environments. (Trader Joe’s Parking Lot on a Sunday Afternoon?) Purposefully used to replace conventional materials and construction allowing us to save weight and increase durability where it’s needed. To help address dimensional issues with modern armor options, we integrated 4-way stretch woven panels to allow for a wider range of armor plate fitment and retention. See? We know what we are doing. ADAPTABILITY Working off our ADAPT philosophy, new and updated features have been added to increase versatility. The new zip-on back panel system, integrated into the rear plate pocket, allows quick and easy swap-out of ADAPT back panels. Laser cut MOLLE rows remain for existing compatible products. Building upon our pioneered concealed front flap attachment system, the updated front plate pocket contains concealed G-hook attachment points and provides low profile integration of all ADAPT front flaps. For optimal fit and function, the shoulder straps were designed to enable the user to customize the carrier to their preference with strap hardware that can be swapped from side-to-side and to other forms of preferred fastening. For heightened mission efficiency and situational awareness, the built-in full width admin pocket is accompanied with a laser cut MOLLE panel to integrate modern mobile device platforms (such as ATAK) and associated accessories. Check this out guys and gals! The size of the carrier has nothing to do with your shirt size but everything to do with the size of your armor plate. When choosing your plate carrier size, you will want to pick it to fit what armor you have.

The Mini Dangler® drop pouch is a lower profile version of the original and popular Dangler® pouch. Like the original, it was designed to provide a ‘fanny pack’ add-on to your armor carrier. The Mini Dangler® hang height is less but is also wider than the original Dangler®. In comparison, only a minimal amount of internal storage space is reduced but provides an overall lower profile for those seeking a more streamlined setup. A large zipper opening with dual zipper pulls allows quick and easy access to your contents. The top Velcro attachment was shortened to allow the Mini Dangler® to be mounted on the Bora Belt system but will still attach to armor carriers securely. Features a name that makes me giggle Dimensions are 9" x 3.75" x 2" Made in USA
The Roll 1™ Trauma Pouch is a Dangler® style pouch that stores Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK) contents and offers rapid deployment in an emergency. The concept for the Roll 1™ Trauma Pouch is credited to our good friends at Forward Observations Group, who originally designed and fabricated the prototype pouch for fellow SOF in Syria. We teamed up to re-design it with the Ferro Concepts touch and to get it into hands of the people who need it. The Roll 1™ is intended to be worn in the opening of the rear body armor plate pocket: occupying unused real estate, staying out of the way, and adding lumbar support for full-kit vehicle rides. The Roll 1’s open ended, ambidextrous outer pouch enables access on both sides of the casualty if trauma care is required. Simply grab the left or right deployment pull tab, yank out the insert to gain access to IFAK contents, and go to work. The Roll 1™ can also be mounted to the front of a plate carrier, battle belt, or anywhere a large enough hook and loop Velcro interface is used. Included is the outer pouch, and the insert pouch. Trauma kits /IFAK contents for the insert are sold separately. The name Roll 1™ is a reference to the medical terms relating to levels of care: Role 1 or Echelon 1 is medical support integral at the tactical level that provides immediate life-saving care, first aid and triage. Role 2 is med support at a higher/larger level where Role 1 usually send patients for MEDEVAC. Roles 3 and 4 are specialty surgical capabilities and long-term definitive care. Meticulously designed by Forward Observations Group and Ferro Concepts Compatible with Ferro Concepts plate carriers and Chesty Rig Platforms Compatible with The Bora Belt™ Compatible with most plate carriers with a hook and loop Velcro interface Open ended, ambidextrous design Adjustable deployment tension on both sides Includes outer pouch and insert pouch Trauma kits sold separately Berry Compliant Made in the USA View Product Guide

ATTENTION: Refer to the sizing guide, this belt is sized to your actual waist, not your pants size. The Bora Belt™ introduces the next evolution of the FC Battle Belt. Named after the powerful and unforgiving northern wind, it was developed in close collaboration with special operations and law enforcement professionals to provide a rugged, uncompromising platform for your loadout. This isn’t just another duty belt, it’s purpose-built to outlast and outperform under pressure. Now improved with a color-matched, laser-cut thermoplastic frame, the Bora Belt™ reduces both bulk and weight while increasing rigidity over traditional battle belt construction. The result is a clean, streamlined profile that sacrifices nothing in strength. A color-matched D-Ring Cobra® Buckle completes the minimalist aesthetic while delivering proven reliability. At its core, a continuous length of 1" tubular webbing runs from buckle to buckle, providing unmatched structural integrity. The newly integrated ½” webbing MOLLE was selected for its low profile and ease of mounting holsters, mag pouches, and other mission-critical gear. A major advancement is the addition of the Bora Belt™ Webbing Lock; a precision-engineered component that keeps the belt securely tensioned during high-intensity movement and adverse conditions. It eliminates slippage and removes the need for constant readjustment in the field. Lined with hook Velcro, the outer belt interfaces securely with the included inner pant belt, enabling rapid don/doff while maintaining a locked-in, stable platform. Lightweight, low-profile ½” webbing MOLLE for secure and efficient gear mounting Included Bora Belt™ Webbing Lock maintains belt tension under movement Continuous 1" tubular webbing core for maximum strength Color-matched thermoplastic and D-Ring Cobra® Buckle Hook & Loop Velcro attachment system 2" outer belt, 1.5" inner pant belt IR/NOD-safe – no reflective signature under night vision Made in USA View Product Guide *WARNING* The Bora Belt™ has a critical design that is intended for proper use when carrying out technical operations. This carefully designed and engineered product is not to be used with a harness of any sort or for the action of restraint or rappelling. Ferro Concepts Inc. assumes no liability associated with the misuse of this product. The loss, damages, or expenses of any kind arising out of the use or misuse of this product reflects zero liability towards Ferro Concepts Inc. The misuse of these belts could cause serious injuries or death. NOTE: When mounting the Modular Holster Adapter or other holsters/adapters DO NOT install through the MOLLE webbing. Instead mount holsters/adapters around the entire belt.
The PTT Wing Kit includes two mounting wings: one for the FCPC chest panel and one for MOLLE, perfect for cummerbund use. The chest wing pushes your PTT out of the way of your ATAK device, while the cummerbund wing clears it off the front of your carrier. Both options support a clean, snag-free setup and let you run a dual PTT configuration on your support-hand side. Each wing features multiple holes for direct mounting and larger holes for shock cord retention, giving you flexibility and hot-swap capability in the field. Compatible with: Wave Relay MPU5 PTT, Invisio V10, V20, V60 Atlantic Signal 21GC Compatible with other PTTs when using included shock cord and cord locks Made in USA
A reliable attachment point for your helo lanyard, the Bora Breakaway Loop mounts securely to any 2” MOLLE belt.
