Holster is great quality, only thing I wish it had was an option for different compensator options, had to Dremel the end so my comp would fit, not a big deal at all, love the holster!!! Picture attached to show compensator.
Thank you for the 5-star review and for sharing your feedback! We’re glad you’re loving the holster and appreciate you pointing out the compensator fit. Custom setups can sometimes need a little extra adjustment, but we’ll keep your suggestion in mind as we continue to expand options. Thanks again for your support and for sharing a picture with your review!

Got this to put on my Revcon Holster for my Mossberg MC2c that’s being used with a Phlster Enigma setup. I was initially using the Medium wedge with no problem but with the Plateau pad it adds more comfort considering that I attached the Spare Mag carrier that Phlster advises against doing (by the way no affiliation or promoting Phlster I’m just sharing my personal setup). I love this setup!
Would definitely buy this pad again because I also tested it on the Entrada and that already comfortable setup got even more comfortable.
Thanks so much for sharing the details of your setup! We love hearing how customers combine our gear with other systems to make it work best for them. Glad the Plateau Pad added even more comfort both on your Rev-Con with the MC2c and on the Entrada. That’s exactly what we designed it for—making already solid carry rigs even more comfortable. We truly appreciate the support and your trust in Black Arch!

Does not even fit the model I purchased this with.
Daniel, sorry about the issue, the Plateau pad definitely fits the holster it was purchased with. Shoot us an email and we would love to walk you through how to attach it.

Quality in manufacturing and functionality of their offerings. Zero disappointment. Lightning shipping and handling. Fair pricing. Specifically, the pad adds comfort and concealment to their holster.
Thank you for the great review! We’re glad the quality, functionality, and value all stood out. It’s also great to hear the pad is adding that extra comfort and concealment to your setup. We appreciate the support and the kind words about our team!

Tried several other holster pads that just didn’t hold up. The Black Arch plateau pad is perfect just the right amount of padding not too bulky for everyday carry. I installed the plateau on my Tenicore Certum and it fits perfect. Still waiting for Black Arch to make a holster for
My Staccato HD C3.6
We’re glad the Plateau Pad hit the mark for you! Getting that balance of comfort without bulk is exactly what we were aiming for. It’s great to hear it paired up well with your setup. We’ll definitely keep models like the Staccato HD C3.6 on our radar — we appreciate the interest and the 5 stars!

Feels great very comfortable! Wish i didnt cut the velco on the wrong direction but i still made it work .

I love my Entrada and left a review. This is a suggestion for the Plateau Pad. In the future could you offer the current pad and a Plateau Pad the same size, but thicker at the bottom to be a dual function pad/wedge
Thanks for the suggestion and the kind words! That’s a solid idea, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share it. Feedback like this helps us keep improving — thanks for the support!

not a big fan of wedges or most holster pads but this is the best one on the market. It now lives on my Shield x holster full time. It’s just thick enough to add some padding but not overly thick that it adds a lot of bulk/bulge below the belt line. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.
Thanks for the awesome feedback! We’re glad to hear the pad hit the sweet spot for comfort without extra bulk. Really appreciate you sharing your experience and the recommendation! We have been loving it here at the shop so I'm glad you are as well!

Love this super easy upgrade. Very easy to slap on and it is way better quality than others I've tried. You guys knocked it out of the park on this one.
Thanks for taking the time to test out a new product!

Seems to be quality, but have not used it yet. Was unclear as to what its application is. Now that I know, I still do not have an uncomfortable kydex holster to use it on..
Time will tell, I guess.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Hopefully once you have a chance to use it we will be able to earn those last two stars haha. If you have any questions or need any help with the Pad shoot us an email and we can get you squared away!

Love this product! Game changer for EDC.

Make sure you get this. Makes the holster super comfortable

I like the idea and bought for a holster I’ve ordered but don’t yet have.
Appreciate you grabbing the Plateau Pad and sharing your initial thoughts. Once your holster arrives and you get a chance to run the setup, we’d love to hear how it performs for you. Hopefully it lives up to the idea — and earns that fifth star. Thanks again for your support and for giving the new gear a shot.
the
Concealment Wedge vs Plateau Pad
While both the Plateau Pad and our Concealment Wedge are designed to improve comfort, they serve different roles in your carry setup. The Wedge is sculpted to push the grip of your firearm inward for better concealment, making it ideal for users focused on minimizing printing. The Plateau Pad, on the other hand, offers a flat, uniform layer of cushion that reduces pressure and hot spots without altering the holster’s ride or angle.
