The thing just randomly falls apart. Just moving, not touxhing the pull tab. I had to carabineer all the straps together so it would stop. Its good now just cant tear it away. The pockets are really tight. Barely took the condor kangaroo insert. Took me forever. The plate pockets fit my guard god level 4s pretty snug. Ill use it until i break it. It was cheap you get what you play for.

Bought this for work(mil) cause it was the last camo one. It's longer then the traditional carriers. Also the adjusting of the shoulder straps is very similiar to the skydiving rigs. It's just an awkward vest to wear. I have used Condor products for years because of their durability.

I just realized till I got the product it is made in china. I put 3 star because it is cheap. I put not recommend because I support American made. Did not put a plate yet so I don’t know if it holds it. And I will put a hydration system and magazine pouch if it holds good as well.
Cons:
- made in China and not USA
Would recommend: No

The vest is really well made with very secure hook and loop, and adjusts easily to fit to size. The MOLLE webbing is also well stitched and strong. The only thing that does not adjust well are the plate pouches, which will NOT (as advertised) hold XL-sized SAPI plates. It works just fine for Large and below though.

This plate carrier is more on the basic side and does not have places to carry side plates, but otherwise is a great carrier. The plates fit snug and there are plenty of places to tether mag pouches, etc. to it. Also lots of sizing adjustment options. Would recommend to anyone looking for a basic plate carrier.

First impressions are that's it's heavy. It feels solid and the stitching looks nice. The Velcro works well and seems to hold good. I am pleased with it overall but will probably end up giving it to someone shorter than me.
I wear a 50Reg or 50Long suit jacket and at the largest adjustment this fits my chest fine. (My dress shirts are 17.5" neck x 36" arms)
However, it does not come down very low on me. I am 6'3" tall. The oblique sides end where my rib cage ends.
The 'waist size' of up to 44" isn't very helpful if you are over 6 feet because it isn't low enough to get to your waist. And that's considering your waist as the measurement at your belly button.
Would recommend: Yes

I've owned this plate carrier for over a year now. Over the last year as my training has advanced, I've realized some issues with it. Not from a quality stand point per say. So first off. I've lost 40lbs in the last year in doing do I've had to adjust the carrier. For a proper fit, I've had to install new grommets on the sizing straps for the shoulders. The carrier normally sits too low for my frame. (6ft, 175 currently) The carrier holds level 4 plates just fine. The kangaroo pouch up front is great and you can pick up a 3 mag pouch that fits directly inside for a low profile. The carrier currently holds approx 20lbs of plates, magazines, and other gear and has done fine. I've experienced no failures over the last year of vigorous training, from crawling in the mud. To high speed movement drills. The quick.release is a nice feature but can be frustrating to put back together. The current adjustment makes it difficult to actually don the carrier due to a decreased head opening to get the plates to sit at the proper level on my body. I've beat this carrier up and when I replace it soon. I'll Gladly have it as a backup.

Very well made and comfortable. I had a cheaper one before I purchased the gunner and the difference in unreal. Shipping was quick as well. Fits 10x12 perfectly but was a tight squeeze with 11x14. I fully recommend this product.

Webbing was stronger than I had anticipated for the price range. Fits well enough with curved plates, not sure if flat plates would be comfortable. Wide straps keep the weight distributed but not nearly as well as my iotv. I'd definitely buy again for a trainer or backup, but for everday or extended time, I'd buy a higher grade

The Condor chest rig is an amazing value!!!!! I would highly recommend it! It’s very affordable and comfortable. The quick release feature is also awesome! Fit my Botach Battle Steel plays perfectly. If you’re thinking about buying one, just do it!
