BULLETPROOF VESTS

Also got this one for my dad's birthday for the back of his plate carrier I got him for Christmas and he also liked it. Not quite what I was expecting though; it had the nylon exterior cover unlike the swimmer plate I ordered. At it was thicker than expected too.

Very flexible , fit nicely will be adding a heavier plate in front and keep these as a pad almost , but if I ever feel like It I can take one and toss it right in my backpack it’s super light works good for easy protection with my backpack on not super thick either only a half inch maybe less actually but can stop a lot.

All in all it's a great carrier. The quadrelease seems pretty sturdy, doesn't open without pulling the tab so it won't randomly fall off. There's 2 cumberbunds, one is just straight elastic but it only connects to the vest in the back (it's difficult to describe without showing you) which to me seems kinda pointless so I just folded them and tucked them away- then you have the regular cumberbund that attaches the front and back of the vest together. What's nice about them is that they have shock cord between them, so it stays tight on your body, but has room to flex when you sit or breathe deep or whatever, that's a very nice addition. Pocket for the plates are a little taller than they need to be, which isn't a plus or a minus it's just something I noticed. The tubes are super easy to use, getting this on and off is a dream. My only really grip is there's no place to put the regular hard side plates. There's a pocket in the cumberbund that fits their 3a soft panels, but nothing to hold a hard plate in place so you have to buy a pouch to put on the outside of the MOLLE, that's the only major downside to this. Otherwise it's a great piece of gear

The weight, quality and price are fantastic for the protection. I got this plate for my spouse and they are extremely happy with the fit and weight. I put this plate as a front plate and a single curve for the back plate in an LBT inc low profile carrier.

The lvl4 plates I received have been a great option just starting out and I love the padding that is around the edges does. It have a sharp angle on them. Not a single but of wear has formed on either plate after nearly two years of use.
