Always been quick for me, I was on the last pre-order the day it started, and had my plates in hand at most 3 weeks later.

We appreciate the positive words and we are committed to getting everything out as quickly as we can. We don't want to keep you guys waiting any longer than is absolutely necessary and we are putting everything we have in ending this series of pre-orders and keeping everything in stock.
 
Again, not bashing AI as I've seen this issue with all companies. It's just the nature of trying to bring a new product to market.
I'm patiently awaiting my plates from the pre-order.
I do wish AI would come back with some 3A plates at that great sale price they had of $150 (but without the octagon cut). I'd get a couple of those if I was quick enough.
BTW, your plate carrier looks very good with lots of modularity.

We will have all the pre-order plates shipped out next week. You should all get your tracking numbers on Monday. We do have our hands full with trying to bring out new products but we are doing everything to make sure you guys get all the same customer service and support as you normally would. We might have those prices come back during a sale so just keep your eyes peeled for that. If you are interested in a custom cut for the soft armor just send us an email and we can see what we can do.
 
Also to any of you who have pre-ordered our Hoplite steel plates we do have a 15% discount code for the arkon plate carrier. Just send us an email and we will send that code out to you.
 
Plates have arrived.
Gotta say, there's definitely a slight weight increase.
Good thing I'm big strong manly man. ��
 
Canada Post folks must have loved you guys.
I can picture all the folks complaining about the weight of all those packages.
Kinda funny in my mind.

Yes we are definitely making more. But the benefit is we actually have them in stock currently. We have succeeded in getting our production up to the point that we are confident in having the made in Canada steel in stock permanently. No more pre-orders and waiting for production to be completed. The plates are in stock currently and we should be able keep them in stock for the foreseeable future.
 
Also we re now offering made in canada plate carrier and ballistic plate package that includes our new ARKON plate carrier as well as either our Level 3a Hexplates or our level 3+ Hoplite ballistic plates. For the first time you can get our made in canada products together in a package to save money off purchasing them individually. Check it out here;

Would it be possible to get some exact thickness measurements for these plates? The ones that I have seen were precisely 9mm thick so I am wonder if the manufacturer is adjusting the coating thickness first from 8mm to 10mm and now to 9mm (08/2021), to give just enough coating to the steel plate. I thinner coating could be insufficient and a thicker coating may result in other issues with the product quality. Thanks in advance for your comments
 
So I see you're out of 3A plates.
Just a desire to drop the 'advanced shooters cut and just stick to shooters cut. Picky I know, I'm sorry.
Oh and a sale on them when they come back again because well... because. Also, if cheap enough, I'd get 2 pairs.
 
Looks like you are sold out of armour packages, shoot me a pm I’ll take two when you get them back in stock
 
Not a problem the thickness that I just took is 9.5mm +-0.03mm. We have been playing around with final aesthetic coatings and this is what we have settled on. The actual composition is identical, and the +- 1mm is how we managed to fix the rough edges that plagued the production for the first run.
 
Yes we had a government client that cleared us out and we are currently in the process of restocking. As for the cut that's what we have programmed for our cutter so we might change but as of this moment its more of a special order item if you want a different cut. As for a sale you will have to wait for a bit. We do have a couple sales planned soon so just keep your eye out.
 
We actually should have them back in stock by next week. I can shoot you a pm when they're back in, or you can send us an email or call whatever is more convenient for you.

Understandable folks. It's just that every other armour you have is shooters cut, the 3a is the only one in an advanced shooters cut which, while more mobile, is just that little bit less coverage. Of course, I could stand to trim down myself a bit. :)
 
Due to the ongoing supply issues and material shortages we have been left with no option but to increase the price of these plates. We have been able to eat material cost increases until now but it has sadly reached a point that we can't continue to produce these plates unless we increase the price. We sincerely apologize for this and if and when these supply issues are sorted we will bring the price back down. However we thought that this is unfair to drop on all of you without some recourse. To that end we are keeping the price the same for this new production run. After that we have no choice but to fully implement the increased price. Once again we beg your forgiveness for having to do this as we have always wanted our armor to be as affordable as possible. This first batch is estimated to be ready in 3-4 weeks.

- Sincerely

The team at AI Tactical
 
Do you recommend using trauma pads with these plates? Back face deformation will be minimal, granted, but I'm thinking for additional padding between the plate and the carrier itself.
