Shaw Concepts ARC Shoulder Pads V2 | Plate Carrier Shoulder Pad Upgrade

Combat-Grade Comfort. Load-Bearing Support.

The Shaw Concepts ARC Shoulder Pads V2 are a premium plate carrier shoulder pad upgrade built to reduce fatigue and improve comfort under heavy load. Designed for extended wear in full kit, these combat-grade shoulder pads feature 3/8 inch closed cell foam and mil-spec spacer mesh to cushion your traps while protecting your neckline from pressure and friction.

Whether you are running patrol, working static overwatch, or training long hours in plates, the ARC Shoulder Pads V2 help distribute weight more evenly across your shoulders. The internal OneWrap Velcro anchors allow precise positioning while doubling as cable routing channels for comms and hydration lines. Three integrated 1 inch side ports support modular shoulder armor integration when required.

Engineered with a 2 inch internal channel, these shoulder pads are compatible with most standard plate carriers, including the Shaw Concepts ARC Carrier V2, Crye JPC and AVS, Spiritus Systems LV-119, First Spear Strandhogg, and more.

If you are searching for plate carrier shoulder pads, tactical shoulder pads for heavy kit, or a comfort upgrade for your combat loadout, the ARC Shoulder Pads V2 deliver long-term wearability without compromise.

Why We Love the Shaw Concepts ARC Shoulder Pads V2 Plate Carrier Pads:

Anyone who has spent hours in plates knows shoulder pads are not optional. These take the strain out of sustained load bearing by adding real cushioning without bulk.

We like that they solve multiple problems at once. They add comfort, protect the neckline, support shoulder armor integration, and provide clean cable routing in one lightweight system.
