Matrix Level-1 Plate Carrier with Integrated Magazine Pouches (Color: Evike Star)

"Haven't used it in a game yet but my first impression of this vest, it's fair. Shoulders fit a little wide. If you have broad shoulders, you'll be fine. The integrated triple pouch is okay. It does velcro close and does have elastic separators inside for the magazines. The Evike BAMF mags kinda fit. The base plate on them makes it a little difficult to get them to lay flat. Mine came missing the middle pull tab for the center mag. The bungie was there but the pull-tab was not. It does come with foam sapi plates. The only con I personally have with it is I wish the integrated triple pouch was a half inch wider.

"Pros
-Plates are sturdy
-Comfortable to wear

Cons
-Those three-straps that hold it at the side make this vest a pain to put on.
-The plates like to ride up and once you're strapped in it's hard to pull them back down

"An okay plate carrier. Really good for the price. No molle on the sides, but it is not a big deal. Shoulder and cummerbund are adjustable, so they can fit me, (5’9 180lbs) and even my (5’9 120lbs) friend. The velcro became very weak in about a month, but it still sticks.

Pros:
Adjustable
Breathable
Price

Cons:
No molle on sides
Velcro wears down fast

"This is a very well made and practical vest! However, it is large. If you are a very built person you should have no problem. It will not fit kids or skinny people.

"Good for the price. Only comes in large plate sizes. So could be bad if you're a smaller chested person running a large dummy plate in this.

The mag pouches that are built in are kinda finicky and need to retied on semi regular basis.
When I attached a Matrix hard shell pouch the front flap would pull up when I drew a mag. I don't know if the tension was to high or if this is normal. Either way, throw some stronger Velcro patches on and your as right as rain.

"Its alright little smaller than i thought for holding large plates but it works nicely super strong velcro and great fit for plates

"Overall a good product however this vest doesn't cover the bottom bit of my stomach. I am around 174 cm tall.
by Aceley D. on 03/01/2018
"I absolutely love this JPC, extremely versatile and very low profile as well. Fits snug and close to the body. One important note here, the three mag slots on the front are very, very deep (m4 mags).
by Nikolas C. on 01/07/2018
"Good vest for a light load out, or beginners. To get the most maneuverability for this I recommend taking only the front plate out giving you room to aim and such. Extra shoulder room permits beefier clothes as well.

Pros
.Lightweight
.lots of molly space (front and back)
.adjustable grip on torso
.comfortable to wear, (wearing it while writing this)
.high quality materials and making

Cons
.Shoulders are a bit big
.doesn't come with any carriers or accessories to put on the vest

"Didn't exactly come as advertised-- the "cummerbund" has buckles (which are attached at the back) instead of the flexible elastic cord attachment. The straps on the side don't have MOLLE capability (as it seems in the photo) and the shoulder straps are made of nylon layered over a strengthening core. The shoulder straps are velcro-adjustable, and have a nylon tube that slides very tightly over the connection. Velcro-adjustable Water tube/radio wire guides attached to it.

Buckles are a little loose, but I intend to replace them as soon as possible. Came branded as Matrix, which is probably the manufacturer for Avengers.

Very lightweight, even with plates installed (it comes with foam plates). There isn't any Velcro space on the back for name tape-- which is alright, I have name tape on the back of my hat. A very good analogue to the Crye JPC. Quick doffing capability, which is really nice.

Going to email Evike if I can get the cummerbund as advertised.

"I'm 13 and a half, 162 lbs, and 5'10". But i Grew Out of this. If you wear a small to medium, you can fit this. But the only problem is that you can grow out of it pretty fast if you're barrel chested, and still growing.

"Its a good budget plate carrier. There are quite a few fraying stitches and mine ripped a little bit, but thats about all thats wrong with it. I'm 5'6" 135lbs, fits perfectly fine.

"This is a great starter JPC. Ill start off with the stitching and over all build quality. The Velcro is strong and the stitching and molle loops are able to hold up to any pickup airsoft game. The vest is very breathable especially with the foam plates it comes with (wrap them in some type of thick tape). The 3 inner mag puches are wide and can fit 3 m4 mags and 3 ak mags if you really squeeze them in there (buy some extra pouches). Now this is the X-large version and being 6'2 and 200lbs i am glad i did not get the smaller size. The cummberband side straps are relaitvly easy to adjust just be patient and dont rip the cord like i did lol. So for $70 this is a good investment. Alot more comfortable than a chest rig or harness. I would recomend getting a good belt with dump pouch and other pouches seeing that this jpc is not meant to hold alot of things. Its high speed and low drag. Now if you have the money to get a lbx or crye jpc then go ahead but I like saving money and this Avengers JPC is a great option :)

"i love this plate carrier It fits well if your 13 and about 5,1 '' this will fit it

Pros: fits well
high quality

Cons: mag pouches suck!
I don't really like how the cummerbund is attached its just like tied on with something
