    Vest is Great but...

    Posted by N Harris on Jan 22nd 2024

    I bought as a bug out vest, I love the vest, it is everything as advertised and exactly as expected. the problem I have is actually with the plates that were shipped. The plates I ordered were curved plates. They are curved, sorta. The 2 of the 4 corners on both front and back plates are warped flat. I don't have a huge issue with it because it still serves its purpose. It is a minor comfort problem, but who cares about comfort if you're being shot at.
