Matrix MOLLE S.D.E.U. High Speed Airsoft Tactical Vest (Color: OD Green)

"This was one of the better airsoft investments made toward carrying everything needed critical to a battle.

So there is a lot of MOLLE on this vest. Get creative! Customize your loadout to your best of your abilities for what suits you on the field.

The vest is easy to run and maneuver in.

The vest has an intimidating look.

It is also very durable and can withstand any weather condition so you can go places where you normally wouldn't

A prime example of this- is that you can go through thick vines, bushes with openings, and deep foilage without bruising/scratching yourself up in the process.

Yes (just like in the last post below) you're bound to get hot with the vest on. Honestly, you get used to it after a while.
And get a MOLLE camelbak for it- or set up a part of the vest to hold water. (you're supposed to have water to begin with anyways)

Other pointers: The crotch protector, neck protector and shoulder pads are capable of coming off.

If you're looking for a Juggernaut (Modern Warfare 2) or future soldier set up, this vest is a good start for your loadout.

5/5

"this is a great vest it works well with all my MOLLE gear except one thing (Matrix Condor Molle Modular Utility / Accessory Pouch) i'm not shure if it's the straps on the pouch or the MOLLE on the vest but they dont align right. this vest fits me well and its comfortable, it does tend to get a little hot even when i'm just standing still, but thats nothing i'm going to complain about because it's worth it. all $75.00 5/5

"I received this vest in early September and was very excited to get it. I�ve wanted one of these for a while now since I�m trying to make a load out for the Global Defense Initiative from Command & Conquer 3 and 4 and this looked like it would do just that. After I unpacked it I was amazed at the amount of MOLLE loops on this vest. They�re every where, even on the back of the neck guard. I also liked the idea of having a groin pad since there have been a couple of shooting incidents at some of our matches that I didn�t want to add my name to. After admiring the vest, I tired it on and it fit wonderfully. It was very flexible even though it didn�t look like it and it was lightweight at about 3.4 pounds. The shoulder pads are tricky to get on by yourself but that�s what brothers and teammates are for. I then decided to test the built on rescue handle to see how sturdy it was so I asked my brother to drag me across the floor. I�m not a lightweight myself but that handle didn�t feel like it was just gonna give out. After that I then decided to take a look at the built in back pocket for the water carrier. I have a civilian Camel Back which is colored blue so it�s not really the ideal thing to have when you�re sneaking trough the woods but the back pocket combined with the neck guard allowed me to hide almost the entire set up and I could store the mouth piece in the neck guard for easy access. When I was done messing around I couldn�t wait to try it on the field.

That chance came a couple of weeks later on Sept. 19 when my local airsoft group managed to get a match together after about a month after some of the admins and most of the seasoned members had to take temporary leave for various reasons (college & jobs). Even with 80+ degree heat that day, the combination of full ACUs and the vest still wasn�t the miserable sweating hell I had suspected it to be. It was warm enough to make me sweat but it was no big deal. As a matter of fact since my camel back was filled with ice water, it�s location in the back pocket helped keep the vest cool and even after I ran out of water, the heat was still tolerable. The vests flexibility also still made hits noticeable even though I couldn�t feel the full impact of the bbs and even if you don�t feel the vest flex from hits, the bbs still make a nice loud pop when they hit. This vest performed beautifully that day but there were a couple of issues with the vest.

The first problem I have with the vest is that the hooks used to clip the shoulder pads to the torso are made of plastic. Although they do not appear to be in any immediate danger of breaking, my family has a history of discovering ways of breaking things, especially plastic ones. I just would�ve preferred some type of metal personally. The second issue is more pressing and should be known to any possible buyers and it concerns the groin pad. There is a patch of Velcro on the inside pad and on the inside of the vest for easy storage but the stiff hook half is located on the pad and it started to eat away at my pants during the match. I would recommend either that you should remove this patch entirely or, you could go to the store and buy some spare Velcro to cover the spot on the pad and keep your pants from ripping apart.

In short I love this vest and can�t wait to get more pouches and patches for it to complete my load out. It�s very good in action and the cons are negligible. This vest is worth the $75 and what ever else you pay for more pouches.

Pros:
-Flexible
-Lightweight
-Back pocket for water bladder
-Comfortable
-Sturdy construction
-Groin pad
-Insane amount of MOLLE loops
-Plenty of Velcro for patches
-Looks cool and stays cool

Cons:
-Plastic hooks on the shoulder pads
-Velcro on groin pad can wreak your pants
-You will want to wear this more than you have to.

"I have had this product for about a year and it is very comfortable. The under/over velcro straps allow me to adjust the vest to fit me perfectly. This vest has a ton of molle witch is a must for me considering I have very odd shaped mags. The sholderpads are adjustable and I found them to be very usefull. The three things i have agianst this vest are that it will get a little heavy after about 4 hrs, it doesnt vent well (especially if you get the black one) and that it gets tough calling your hits. Wanna feel like a tank? Then I suggest you get this.

"all i can say is wow! this thing looks like a beast! molle everewhere, and where theres no molle theres velcro! the only problem i can see is i got friends who like to play 'tank' and something like this wouldn't be very helpful... they'd claim they weren't shot and stuff like that. all in all this looks like a pretty good deal

"This vest is awsome. Its extremely light, comfortable, and keeps you warm when your playing in the cold. Lots of molle, I like to be tactical so this is what I need. I suggest wearing it with the shoulder protecters off when your playing in warm weather because you will overheat, get exhausted and get gunned down when your running sluggishly. The groin protector might feel awkward or funny for a while but I suggest wearing it all the time, trust me ;)

Just got back from a match and this thing is wicked, It stops bbs extremely well, took a shot to the chest with an ARES Intervention and I barely felt a thing, no pain at all, unless your the kinda person who plays to get hurt for the fun of getting hurt, I am too but anyways Great vest, solid design, tactical....BUY IT!!!!

"Just got this vest on, and my first thought was just "WOW!" It fits perfectly! You can adjust it to so many sizes and looks awesome no matter what! Like shown above it has molle pretty much everywhere, meaning you can customize it completely to your liking. This was totaly worth the money!

"First of all this vest is friggin sweetness!!! It has a crap load of molle, and is extremely light, alot of protection and velcro for patches. My airsoft team is modeled after the Umbrella Corps Special forces or U.B.C.S. and is extremely distinctive to what you would expect highly trained soldiers to wear. Rockin Umbrella Logo patches is friggin sweet especialy when everyone is gawking at how awsome you, your gun, your vest, and especialy patches look!! just got back from an airsoft tournament and my vest deflected a shot from an ARES Intervention and I didnt even feel a thing. Groin protector helps a bunch, I almost got my "Stuff" shot at like 400 times, I swear everyone aims for that spot!! I recommend this vest to serious players who are commited to airsoft and want to have a total tactical loadout!! :)

Pros.
Great feel
Shoulder pads
Neck guard
Light weight
lots of Molle
Velcro for patches
Umbrella Corps Roxxxxsszz
Groin protector( protects my "stuff")

Cons.
when you bend down sometimes the velcro disattaches itself from the other velcro which is pretty
annoying especially when ur getting shot at!! :(
Shoulder pads are particularly annoying but do provide alot of protection

"This thing is absolutely a vest of its word: High speed- high maneuverable vest
Comfortable =) Could one sleep in this? Most likely.
To be getting MOLLE for it. And to rock out!
This things great and versatile. You feel protected in every way, shape and form. Good feeling =)

Just loosen up the lower (crotch) protector via the strap so you don't get a wedgie
And always hope there will be a friend there to put the shoulder pads strapped and tight
Because the pads are very difficult to put on

Otherwise this is a must get. 5/5

"I bought this vest and i was stunned when i took it out of the box. It very comfortable even for a small person like me. I'm 5'7 and 120 lbs and it fits me perfectly. The only downside is the shoulder protectors, they are impossible to get on and are uncomfortable. I didnt want to use them anyway however. there is literally molle everywhere on this, even the neckguard. All in all, an amazing vest, the best that i have every worn.

"It's a great vest, it allows me to modulate my whole setup and any fashion I see fit. But my only problem with it is that when I try to take it off or put it on I have a tough time getting my head through. It becomes more difficult to get on or off when I put more gear.

"I'm about 5'10" and about 250 Lbs. and this vest is my first vest/plate carrier I've ever owned but for it being the first one it's still and great vest. The only problem I've had with it is the fit , as I said I'm about 250 with a stomach and it can get a little tight around the stomach and slightly loose in the chest , and the crotch guard that comes with it doesn't go all the way down to cover ur junk even with the strap riding up ur crack it just doesn't do the job. Other than that it's a great vest with alot of MOLLE space to put mag and admin pouches and anything else u would use in ur rig and the collar on this vest has saved me more than once on point blank neck shots and in my book that's worth the size issue and the shoulder pads add a little extra protection and a place to put team colors and patches on it . This vest also comes with a large pouch in the back with Velcro closure for a hydration bladder with a loop on the right shoulder for the tube to secure it to the vest so it ain't flapping around.

All and all this is a great vest especially for beginners that want that little bit of extra protection and costumizable space to make it how u want it for a really good price. Just remember if ur a bit chunky in the middle like I am expect some blubber to be exposed on the bottom and for it to not exactly fit right
