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

"-=OVERALL=-
This is a great light weight plate carrier with many good features

Pros:
- Light weight
- Pretty durable
- 3 built in mag pouches
- Fantastic cummerbund

Cons:
- Shoulder straps are hard to get to
- Mine smelled strangely of cigarette smoke...

This replica JPC is my favorite plate carrier that I own, that being said I only have two. Out of the box it comes with two medium sized SAPI plates, so that is a huge plus for me. I only had to do a little bit of modification once I got it. One of those being adjusting the cummerbund and the other was taking out the mag retention straps, I run them open top so I can reload faster. Other than that there is nothing really else to say about this PC except that it is amazing! I would buy another if I had to, a great value for seventy dollars.

"I just received this vest the other day and I am impressed. It is light weight even with everything I have on it. It came with hollow plastic plates even though it says clearly that it doesn't come with plates. But it is a great vest, and clearly worth the $75.

Pros:
Light weight
Comes with plates
Built in magazine pouches
Very sturdy

Cons:
Couldn't think of any, very nice vest!

"This is a great Low Profile vest, it is pretty small and very tight fitting (I am about 5 feet tall and 115 lbs) I only have small problems with it's fitting.

Pros
Lightweight
Low Profile
3 integrated M4 style magazine pouches
Integrated Admin Panel

Cons
Shoulders are stupid hard to adjust
Lots of velcro (not necessarily a bad thing but its a little annoying)
The back gets scrunched up if it is tightly fitted (could be fixed with SAPI plates)

Not a bad plate carrier at all. I would highly reccomend buying this product.

"just buy it its great low profile fits a lot of sizes great molle space just buy it

"This vest is a replica of the Crye Precision jumpable plate carrier. Evike Matt wore this vest for 5 years and now runs a custom made vest. Jet from Desert Fox Airsoft wears a real JPC. I bought this vest at the Evike super store in Alhambra, California. Evike Matt was helping me because I am special and he recommended me this plate carrier. I LOVE this vest because It is very lightweight and has thin skeleton MOLLE on the sides. this vest is good for "Hight Speed, Low Drag" people or your average milsim player. I am 5'1 and 114lb and this vest fit me. (I am only 12) this vest comes with two medium replica SAPI plates. The stitching the vest is cheap. The is made by Emerson (Not Avenges) The vest is made from strong 1000D denier core dura nylon. This vest will hold up for a very long time. My dad (6'3 205lb) could not fit in this vest, but on the other hand my older brother could (6'0 186) this vest comes with a tarp caring bag. I strongly recommend this PC to any player that wants a good vest while still reaming comfortable.

"My order arrived to day within 4 to 5 days shipping which is acceptable. the vest is very good quality and weighs very little. although of its small frame, it still has allot of molle space to add on radios coms hydration bladders mag pouches you name it. i would reccomend this to someone looking for a light rig and is thinking of buying it. go ahead its worth it...

"Man I love this its small compact and gets the job done! Im 5,9 roughly 135 lbs and this carreir goes down to the top of my belly button which is nice so I can run a battle belt. This isnt Avengers though its a Pro Arms replica JPC.

"good vest for 80$ if you have a smaller frame buy this vest. if you are making a high speed low drag kit its good good vest to get.

"I simply love this plate carrier. I'm 5'8'' and weigh 140lbs and this fits comfortably. It comes with 2 fake medium sized sapi plates that give the vest more support and stiffness. you can take them out if you choose to do so. There is molle every where on the vest that is made out of good quality and doesn't feel like it will stretch or rip. Even the velcro on the admin patch is molle. Only complaint is adjusting it for size is a bit tricky but at least its a one time thing. Overall I'd recommend this vest for those players who want to run light weight

"This is a great, high quality vest that is probably great for either smaller or skinnier players. Like the name, it is a smaller plate carrier, but its advantageous if you are looking for a vest that will let you move freely and easily. I love the adjustabililty on this thing, since its easy to make it fit you to your size perfectly, and it basically holds on to your body tightly and makes sure nothing flops around unlike my previous plate carrier which did exactly that. Please note that I am a rather skinny person, I'm 5 ft, 9 inches and only weigh about 135 pounds. The only disappointing thing about it is that it didnt come with the foam plates for me like the previous people who purchased it, but i plan to purchase some dummy sapi plates for myself later on anyway.

"this plate carrier is amazing, I ordered some medium spai plates along with it which can be bought here at Evike and they fit perfectly. it's more of a Coyote Brown, but it's awesome if you're going for a MILSIM look on a tight budget. I'm about 5'4 and out of the box, no adjusting and it fit perfectly, it stops right above my waist and leaves enough room for a belt rig. the velcro in the front(where you attach the straps to the stomach) is very sturdy. I personally love this thing. get some Medium sized Sapi Plates and you're good.


Pros:
-coybrown
-nice and compact
-comfortable
-three built in mag pouches(M4)
-fabric it's made of
-great stiching


Cons:
None I can think of.

Definantly buy this vest if you're on a money crutch and looking for a MILSIM vest or something you can use for speedsoft and still have the comfortability of the plate carrier. Thankyou Evike for providing me with this great plate carrier

"I just spent like 20 minutes writing a thorough review of this vest and I accidentally deleted the whole thing or whatever, so here goes my shorter but to the point review:

So this thing is relatively small. I'm 5'6" and 115 pounds and this is perfect for me. So far I have used it for 3-4 battles, and it has been extremely beneficial. If you are wondering if the built in magazine pouches will work with your AK or other magazines, they will not; however, this does not mean you should not buy it. The magazine pouches have velcro on the openings, so when closed, it is very difficult to even notice the pouches, giving the vest a flat look/feel. I use the built in admin pouch to hold my phone and wallet. I run an M14, so I use the built in mag pouches to hold my cigarettes, pens, and bandages/gauss. There is molle literally everywhere (the velcro on the admin pouch is molle as well) so adding pouches and what not is extremely easy. My only problem is the shoulder straps or whatever are pretty wide, and as a smaller player i find them moving when I prone crawl left and right, and when I run. This is pretty minor, and I have not yet looked to see if this is adjustable.

Pros:
-Very lightweight
-Great for smaller/female players
-Built in admin pouch/three M4 magazine pouches
-Molle everywhere

Cons:
-Not a light tan color (darker than pictured above)
-Shoulders are wide for smaller players
-If you run a battle belt, I advise keeping it separate from the vest due to the vest's small size

"Great product. First off, it's a great vest for smaller frame players. I'm 5'4" at 140lbs and it fits me amazingly well. Still has plenty of adjustments up and down. I ordered two medium as sapi plates with it, but it actually comes with two already. The plates it came with are slightly larger than the ones evike sells and doesn't say "Toy Only" at the bottom. They also fit a lot better than the evike plates. There is just enough Molle across to place 3 stanag pouches, which I would prefer. The three integrated pouches are somewhat of a hassle. Because the vest has the nice covers for the shoulder adjustments, it makes it kind of a hassle to adjust it. The straps around the side are also Molle which is a nice touch. I ended up filling the supplied plates with fine metal shavings and stuffed them back in the vest. I estimate each plate to be about seven pounds and when put in the vest with 5 we stanag gas mags it weighed 18lbs. Felt super realistic.

Pros:
Can be adjusted very small
Come with plates
Molle webbing is tight
Molle straps around the side
Velcro webbing on the top of the front
Pocket behind Velcro webbing
Distributes weight very well

Cons:
Integrated pouches are a hassle
Included plates were somewhat smushed(fixable)
Kind of pricey
Shoulders were annoying to adjust

Overall, it was a great buy. Feels amazing with weighted plates.

"Been using this plate carrier for a month now and I have to say that I am very impressed with it. At first I thought 80$ for a small plate carrier was a bit steep, however I can assure you that the cost is well worth it because of all the features you get along with it.

Pros:
- Close to the body and allows for movement
- 3 Integrated Mag Pouches (I've used flashmags/plastic midcaps/metal hi caps, All M4 mags)
- Integrated Admin Pouch that can hold cell phones, wallets, dead rags, extra batteries/BBs
- Lots of molle space for the size

Cons:
- When I mounted 3 pistol mag pouches with the mags in them it would kind of drag the part of the integrated mag pouch that is facing outside down, just a warning

"this is a fantastic vest. i have not yet field tested it yet but i will soon. i will also make a youtube video of it soon as well. what most people dont realize from the picture is that behind the velcro is an admin pouch that has retention straps for 3 pistol mags 9 or speed loaders.this is a little small on me but it works great with my battle belt.

pros-
light weight
built in mag pouches
comfortable

cons-
not legit multicam, but similar
difficult to adjust the sides
didnt come with foam SAPI plates

all in all gret vest, well worth the $80.00
