Expert Answer

Answered by Hunter, Gear Expert, from OH, United States, on March 25, 2022

The AR500 Armor Veritas Modular Plate Carrier weighs 2 pounds. This is without plates, and depending on what type of plates you use, you can expect a minimum of 6 additional pounds per plate with the average plate.

I'm a larger man 2xl and am wondering if this vest is suitable for a man my size?

AR500 states the cummerbunds and shoulder straps of the Veritas will adjust to fit sizes M-XXL. The Veritas is designed only for 10”x12” plates, so if you have a larger, broad torso, you may also consider a carrier that will fit larger 11"x14" plates to cover more of your cardio thoracic cavity. The AR500 Testudo would fit that bill.

The front and rear panels have padded 3D mesh for comfort and ventilation. The Veritas Lite eliminates the bulk and weight of the padding, 3D mesh, and removes the MOLLE webbing on the upper front and rear portions.
