YK-1.5 Plate Carrier

YK-1.5 Plate Carrier With Pouches

The YK-1.5 is our most popular carrier. It's made out of 1000D nylon and is durable enough for many years of use. It also includes all your essential pouches. It includes pouches for ammo, medical, miscellaneous gear, and snacks. Finally, the YK-1.5 includes a quad quick-release. You no longer have to shop around for all the plate-carrier components when you purchase this carrier.

Pre-order Details:
Solid Colors: Our next batch is scheduled for production in July and should arrive at our warehouse by the end of August. You should receive your order in October. Because these carriers are custom, our YK-1.5 batches are taking slightly longer to produce than before. You are welcome to contact our customer service team at any time regarding your order. We will also send you updates as we receive them! 

Multicam's: We just loaded several thousand pounds of fabric onto a cargo ship, and it's on its way to our manufacturer. Our next batch is scheduled for production in August and should arrive at our warehouse by the end of September. You should receive your order in October. Because these carriers are custom-made, our YK-1.5 batches are taking slightly longer to produce than before. You can contact our customer service team at any time about your order. We will also send you updates as we receive them!

FAQ

Absolutely! At Uprise Armory LLC, we take pride in offering quality products and a transparent buying experience. Each kit comes with a clear description of what's included, so you know exactly what you're getting. We source armor only from highly reputable, verified brands. If you have any questions before ordering, our team is always happy to help!


It happens! Just reach out to our customer service team, and we'll be happy to help. 

We always state lead times at the beginning of each product description. We're always available if you have questions about your order, and we often send updates as soon as we have them.  

We're working hard to reduce lead times, but demand for tactical gear and armor fluctuates wildly month to month, and it's hard to balance. Right now, we receive batches based on each supplier's monthly demand. 

All of our tactical gear comes with a 3-year warranty; however, we often replace things even outside the warranty. Just reach out!

Our armor has an incident-replacement guarantee If you get shot in the armor and need a new set, we'll replace it for free! We have replaced several plate carriers used by law enforcement due to getting shot in the line of duty.

We hope you'll never need it but if you do, you'll be glad you went with us!
