Description
Suspenders are a mix of both LC1 and LC2 variations. At this time we CANNOT accommodate requests for a specific version.
These are ALICE Y suspenders. The US Military used them in the 80s and 90s. The suspenders hook onto ALICE pistol belts and help distribute heavy loads worn on the belt to the shoulders. The suspenders are adjustable. Also, they have padded straps. These are basically the war belt suspenders of the 80's and 90's.
Pistol belt is NOT included.
Features
- Adjustable Padded Shoulder Straps – This has adjustable padded shoulder straps for extra comfort when carrying a load.
- Compatible With ALICE Pistol Belts – Can be used with ALICE pistol belts.
- ALICE System – All Purpose Lightweight Individual Carrying Equipment. The ALICE system was the replacement and upgrade to all load bearing systems in the US Military that came before it. The base of the system was the M1972 system, which after only a short period of time after introduction would be changed over the the ALICE system. Base components from the M1972 system would be kept and upgraded. The system, like its predecessors, included the baseline gear for an individual to sustain themselves in a combat area. Pouches and accessories were attached by slide, belt keepers aka ALICE clips. The system was introduced in 1973 and would be used up into the early 2000's as standard issue. It would see continued use in training environments till around 2010 as well. The ALICE system would be replaced by MOLLE gear, and used along side it for a time as well.
Throughout the development of ALICE the designation LC-1 and LC-2 are used on a variety of gear. LC-1 equipment is gear from the initial M1972 system. Gear from that system that was carried over to ALICE would receive upgrades, improved components and materials, and be designated LC-2.
