Nate’s Leather makes the vest carrier you need.
These exterior vests are not sized small, medium, or large; they are custom fit to you specifically. Nate’s custom fit outer vest carriers are made to accommodate the body armor panels you own and are made with pouches to hold your magazines, handcuffs, OC spray, taser, tourniquet, etc. These pouches can be positioned where the officer would like them and according to your department’s specifications. For over 30 years we’ve been proud to hand-craft our vest carriers in the USA using only the highest-quality materials. These carriers are effortless to put on and take off, with side straps that allow you to loosen the vest and cool off. They are the perfect vest carriers for extreme comfort anytime of year. Our vests will meet your needs for comfort and quality.
A study from the University of Wisconsin Eau-Claire has shown that police officers that wear load bearing vest carriers experience significantly less hip and lower back pain than those that wear only a duty belt. Our load bearing vest carriers (also known as external carriers) are proudly made in the USA and keep you safe while you protect others. Our load bearing vests are made to exactly fit each officer's bulletproof vest and perfectly match the officer's uniform. With just a few simple steps, we ensure that you'll receive a product that helps to reduce your hip and back pain. We are an industry leader in load bearing vest carriers and custom vests.
We take pride in our American Made products and fully stand behind them. If there's something you'd like that you don't see, please contact us.
