TUCSON, Ariz., April 29, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Spartan Armor Systems, the company that provides first responders with reliable, affordable body armor, presents its new plate carrier system, the Leonidas. The Leonidas Plate Carrier is "fit for a Spartan King," and boasts a wide variety of fascinating features, including a removable cummerbund, a series of special pouches and quick-release buckles.
The Leonidas Plate Carrier is Berry Compliant, which means the carrier adheres to the Berry Amendment, a piece of United States legislation for the Department of Defense that gives preferential treatment to product creators who produce, grow and manufacture their wares in the United States. All parts of the Leonidas system were crafted in the United States and they achieve MIL-SPEC standards—a series of engineering and technical requirements for military-grade products.
With a removable cummerbund, the Leonidas Plate Carrier is one of the toughest plate carriers Spartan Armor Systems offers. The cummerbund also has a proprietary retained shock cord system to allow stretch while being held in place to stop sagging, and removable quick-release buckles for ease of use. Because the cummerbund has been designed to hold a 5"x15" IIIA soft armor inside each side, the Leonidas Plate Carrier offers the most protection possible.
"The Leonidas Plate Carrier can be customized in many different ways for many different people. It provides ultimate protection at a reasonable price and is one of the toughest products on the market," said Todd Meeks, Spartan Armor Systems' CEO. "The Leonidas is versatile and feature-packed while being comfortable and lightweight."
Additional features of the Leonidas include PALS web attachment points covering the front, back and shoulders of the vest; Velcro on the back drag-handle, which keeps the Leonidas in place; and communication or hydration hose guides for incorporating items seamlessly into the original design. Because it is adjustable, it will fit all users and is available in a variety of colors, including black, tan, ranger green, and multi-cam.
