"I've had This vest for about a year now and it works beautifully. I'm 5'9" and 130lbs and it fits me just fine. It does sit a bit high but that's the case for almost all plate carriers. After a few minor adjustments I had zero problems with fit. I would recommend this to any airsofter on a budget.

"i am 6'1 and 197lbs. this plate carrier looks great, feels comfortable and comes with pouches ( which is a hard combo to find for this price)
i have been using this plate carrier of roughly 2 years and i have had only a few minor problems ( will be explained), the vest is a semi dark Coyote brown color.
::PROS::
- lightweight
- comes with pouches
- Velcro cummerbund ( pro for me, con for others)
- webbing is evenly spaced ( some 1/2 webbing near upper chest )
::CONS::
- sits a bit high ( roughly 2nd to last rib) making it difficult to use any side space
fixed by putting pouches on belt. ( picture in FB comments)
- no Velcro on upper chest or back ( not really a con)
- the 550 cord on the GP pouch comes off easy
- the cummerbund is held by elastic bands
- the drag handle on the back top IS NOT LOAD BEARING! don't try to drag the wearer, it will break... could just be cause im fat though.
all in all i would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a CB plate carrier and is on a budget. i have bought 4 of these since 2012 for my team and we all love them.

"This is awesome! I just got it in the mail and everything is great. The only thing I do not like is that plates are not included and it looks like they are in the picture. All of the stitching is good and the fabric is also nice. I had to do a bit of adjusting but that was it. This plate carrier is great for all beginner and veteran airsoft players!

"This Is my first plate carrier and is very well made and good. One con is that it does sit a little high on me but most of them are like that anyways I guess. It was hard to figure out how to adjust the cummerbund to fit me but I found out how by looking at similar plate carrier on YouTube to do so, know it fits like a dream. Some pros are is that it is very comfortable in my opinion, very adjustable, tough, and lots of mag space. I do wish there was more pistol mags and Velcro on the utility pouch because I'm using it as a medic pouch so I wanted to put a patch on it but awell. Overall it was a great vest 5 star and worth the 1 week and 2 day wait on ground shipping.

"Had this plate carrier for about a year now and I must say for the price I couldn't believe it's worked so well. I'm 5"10 thick build and it fits nice and snug but by no means tight. It has elastic cumber band in the back that stretches for a more custom feeling fit. It breathes better than the more heavy duty plate carriers out there. If I had to pick a con it would be the stiching is a little funky in places but not noticeable unless your weaving molle ( to be expected though). All in all very happy with my purchase. Great product.

"I got this plate carrier when i saw that it came with all the pouches and was cheaper than a Condor without pouches.
I love the fit, exept it sits a little high in the back. But thats really not a problem for me, and shouldn't be for others, due to the fact that i'm 6' 3', and skinny. lol.
overall.
Pros.
Great fit.
Nice Pouches.
Comes with removable front velcro pad.
Cons.
Some mags you can't double stack. but no big issue there.

"Very good plate carrier, all the pouches come off so you can put your own and move the ones on it. The three mag pouches on the front are really nice, especially for the fact that you can remove the flaps so they're easier to use in a CQB environment, one little flaw and most likely my fault one of the little buttons stuck to the other piece of the button and came off the vest I think I pulled it too hard but nonetheless GREAT CARRIER, I use a Polarstar and the line can be run through the shoulders of the vest and the hydration carrier is very secure on my vest! 5/5 MUST BUY

"Great vest, fits all 5 M4 mags well with a little room for anything I need, I wished the velcro was a bit larger on the front for my name tape but that's just my preference.
Pros:
Tight fit once adjusted
Able to take it off quickly in an emergency, -Don't know how? watch a review on how to wear carriers/ vests-.
Very VERY similar to an actual plate carrier, (In terms of putting it on and taking it off).
Not too tightened MOLLE, so it's easier to weave (Personal Preference).
Cons:
A little tight and high (But that's normal for many carriers, I just have to get used to it).

"This a pretty good plate carrier, maybe not as protective as others but it's very adjustble, I'm 6'0ft 280lbs and it adjusts to my size, it's pretty tight but I like my vest to be tight. The pouch's hold two mags very tight and never fallout. One draw back might be that there's not as much molle space as other plate carriers. Also if you're someone that is really small, this vest will fit, it can adjust to the smallest of people. Overall its a great product for the price.

"It's pretty good just hard to adjust on the side

"A really good vest. Havent gotten a chance to use it on the field yet but it fits nicely and holds a ton of stuff with room to customize (i added on a few extra pouches for my nvg and grenades). The only thing i REALLY wish they would change is the mag pouch size. I'm able to just barely fit two in each if i have one facing up and the other one facing down and even then i need to cram them in there. It got easier after i kept some mags in there for a few days and took them in and out a few times to let the pouches strech out but I could totally see how people had their pouches rip and im lucky mine didnt. Make the pouches even a centimeter bigger and it would all be perfect. I'll give you an update on how it holds up once i get it to the feild.

"I'd recommend this vest to beginners and players who are looking for a basic vest that lets you customize
Pros:
cheap
Fits almost any pouch anywhere
easily adjustable to your body
Cons:
mag pouches it comes with are thin
mag pouches can't really fit 2 m4 mags
Besides those few cons I'd still recommend this to anyone looking for a vest

"Great plate carrier. Mine has been through the ringer since I bought it, and she's still holding up quite well! The pouches are not double stack however, so be warned. Aside from that it's a great deal at an amazing price and if recommend it to anyone looking into buying their first plate carrier or even a backup carrier.
by erik w. on 06/09/2015
"this plate carrier is great my only problem is that the stitching between the double stack pouches ripped after putting in 2 magazines . this did't happen imitatively after putting in the mags but after a few reloads the pouch ripped. this was quite an easy
fix and it was my only problem with this plate carrier.
pros
-it is a nice assault plate carrier
-it can hold 10 mags
-it is a molly vest so you can move the pouches where ever you please
-it has a low price.
cons
-the mag pouches are bad
-it is quite warm in this plate carrier(could be pro)
