This carrier looks exactly like the picture shows and uses quality materials. The shoulder links are metal, and the side joints are a hard plastic. I have only worn it a few times and have found it to be comfortable. All of the exterior stitching is well done and rugged. I only had one problem while installing Guard Dog plates. There is a flap with Velcro straps that fold around the bottom of the plates. I really like this design, and it holds the plates steady. The issue is that this flap only has a single row of stitching. I made the mistake of pulling on it while pushing the plate in and the seam tore for about an inch before I stopped. The flap still functions because the Velcro holds it together and it's not noticeable. I would have been in trouble if I tore the whole thing off. The manufacturer should add another row of stitching to fix this problem. I installed the Guard Dog OPMOD Lvl 4 plates. They are a tight fit but with some patience and a lot of wiggling they got in fine. Other than those slight hiccups, I highly recommend this carrier.
