The Pattern 83 Chest rig, even 40 years later, is almost perfect. Almost. It might be hard to imagine but the chest rigs weren't always designed to accommodate American sized individuals. But everyone from lean, marathon-rucking machines to bulky chads should be able to enjoy pattern 83 type rigs.

So what's the solution? make it bigger. The shoulders have plenty of room for most individuals but it's downfall has always been that pesky, non-removable back strap. With our extender strap, you can expand the range of adjustment an additional six inches. that's like adding an extra three pant sizes. And thanks to the ultra-durable ITW Nexus hardware, it'll be just as strong as the sewn-in back strap always was.

So what if you're not a big guy? this could still potentially be for you. We see a lot of people running P84 and P83 over the top of plate carriers and can't argue with that, but all that extra bulk from plates and other gear can make the rig unwearable. The extender strap solves that problem and easily allows you to run the rig over plate carriers, soft armor, and heavier clothing.

The "fat" strap

This is ideal if you are trying to put your 83/84 over layers of gear or if you are very fat from excessive tendies. Either way it is great to have on hand. It's not as needed for pattern 84 as the rig has a larger scale of adjustment.

Waist strap

Works great, simple and does what it’s made for, makes it much easier/possible to wear thicker clothing or gear under the rig

Tony sent me

So my good friend Tony tells me to tell you this is a great product worthy of your time and money… (what?) Oh yeah and you should buy about a dozen of them… (I’m sorry Tony, I won’t forget another review again.)

In all seriousness it gets the job done, built to make the P83/84 more feasible for the broader American build.

Worked like is should. Not so tight around my fat ass.
