"This vest is excellent, I am 14 years old, male, 110 pounds, kinda skinny and 5'3. I am a short kid but it fits me like no other vest has.If you're a kid and you're looking for a small plate carrier that fits, this is it. You'll have to adjust the shoulder straps but that's it. It'll fit you nicely and it will feel firm.
Pros:
-Fits smaller people when adjusted
-Has a decent amount of MOLLE
-Integrated mag pouches
-Durable
Cons:
-Might feel a little bulky and a little more immobilized due to the mock SAPI plates
-Can't fit a lot of gear on there unless you add more pouches
-Should only be used in pick up games unless you customize it more

"ok so I normally do not do reviews but felt like I had to on this one. First off the JPC looks nothing like the picture....The straps area coyote brown in color and the JPC its self is actually MARPAT Woodland and goes great with the Marine woodland camo. This is by far one of the better Replica vests I have owned!

When I received the vest it was a bit too small so I untied the bungie at the back and retied it and it fit perfectly.
over all, great vest!

"I bought the JPC a while ago and I got to use it at an Event yesterday. One thing I can say right off the bat is that the JPC is tight-fitted to your body. It doesn't move around like other plate carriers do, and the skeletal cummerbund is extremely comfortable. The cummerbund is adjustable in the back of the carrier and is easy to do. The shoulder straps are also adjustable by removing the velcro and adjusting it to your needs. On the shoulder pads there's velcro-adjusted loops to wire your comm's or hydration tube through. There's a integrated admin pouch which can hold many things, and a Kangaroo pouch which can hold 3 M4 Magazines. The kangaroo pouch has retention straps to keep the mags in place, and are also removable if necessary. The velcro on the front side is also PALS webbing, so if you wanted to you can weave something on.
The only con I found is that the stitching isn't that great. In some areas it's better then others but when putting plates in, the velcro teared off the material.
If you are wondering If this plate carrier fits you, I can say it fits most people. I am 6'2" 250lbs and with adjustments it's good to go. They also make kid sizes for the smaller people and a larger one for us big guys. I recommend HSGI Shoulder pads with this PC as they are more comfortable and put less stress on your shoulders. Also to note, this does come with Plates, and a black Emerson travelers bag.
All-in-All, I would give this PC a 9/10. (I tried to be as detailed as I can with this review and I tried to cover everything from the top of my head. If I forgot anything I apologize.)

"I just got this in the mail, it was great! It looks much better in person. And mine came with plates, gg. The plates are shooting around 700FPS but either way they were free. And the JPC is digital woodland, the picture is AOR2.

"This is a great plate carrier! I am 12 yrs. old and it fits me great! It is very light weight and breathable! It comes with foam plates that work great so you don't need to worry about getting fake Sapi-Plates for it. Over all I give this plate carrier a 10/10!
- Pros:
-Sturdy
-Lightweight
-Built in Admin pouch and M4 mag pouches (AK mags fit very tight but they will fit)
-Easy to adjust to your body size
-Breathable
-Perfect for kids
-Foam plates come with it
- Con:
-Velcro is very strong almost too strong (I don't really know if this is a con but it is very difficult to get off)

"This is a nice close to you're chest rig i have no problems with this it has tons of velcro so it stays where u want it

"ive had this plate carrier for a few months now and i gotta say its a great product.
The only problem ive had is the velcro for the admin pouch was very heavy duty and the threads loosened and the admin pouch is a little ripped but i think i got a lemon. Other than that its a great platecarrier. I would reccomend this for cqb and to anyone that wants a plate carrier that wont move around at all. its adjustable so it can be as tight as you need it.

"So I got mine in size Medium (I'm 5'8" an around 150 lbs.) and it fits great, even with my BDU's on. The MOLLE is very nice for adding mag holders, pouches, ect. The velcro patch is just big enough for a flag and a round moto patch. The only pain in the butt is sometimes the mags are hard to get into the build in holders. (There's 3 spots for AR platform magazines and then up above the velcro is another place for pistol mags and such.) Sidenote: If you're playing in the heat, the styrofoam plates will make you drenched with sweat.

"It looks wayyyy better in person! For some reason in the photo, it the colors seem to be off and lighter than the marpat color scheme, but trust me it looks better in person. It's very adjustable and should fit anyone!
by Jeremy M. on 01/11/2015
"OK, so what can I say besides wow? This vest is very nice, no problems with anything about it. The vest itself does come with 2 plastic hollow plates, so if you are wanting/needing those. Here you go. Aside from that all the stitching is great, the pattern is a little bit off, but it is not noticeable at normal distances. And I for one love the thing. I am 5'9" and about 190 so it will fit just about everyone. I really can't think of anything else to say except, why haven't you bought this yet??

"I live in Texas in the Sugarland/Houston area, and this JPC works flawlessly in medium to dense foliage. It does follow the scheme of A-TACS FG, but a tad bit darker (no deal breaker). I bought the Large size because I'm a large person (6'/279lbs). After adjusting the JPC, I was able to make sit right on me (a tad bit above the heart and below my belly botton).
PRO:
- Super high speed/low drag.
- 3 integrated open top mag pouches.
- MOLLE webbing all over the place.
- Very adjustable from med-XL people (Get the normal size if you wear small-med shirts).
- Shoulder straps are adjustable.
- Fits 10x12 Medium size SAPI plates (Real or dummy).
CON:
- Straps to adjust cumberband its a pain in @$$!
- No drag handle (no deal breaker, but sucks).
SUMMARY:
Its a very good money friendly replica of the true Crye JPC. I'm not going to get the real one unless I know for sure I'll be doing this for a long time. Its very user friendly, you can customize it to your liking, and if this tears apart, I'll definitely buy another one =]

-COMES WITH SAPI PLATES
Cons:
