Reviews & Ratings for OpticsPlanet Exclusive OTTE Gear LVZ/OVT Plate Carrier — 9 reviews — Page 1

Great product for Low hiz minimal application. Definitely worth the sale!

I like everything about this carrier, my only issue was my plates( m4+ ridgebacks) barely fit, the spec on the plates and description say they should be fine, but they are so tight they will need to be cut out of the carrier to be removed. Not a huge deal for me as I really really like the carrier, it’s very comfy even after 6-8 hours which is usually not the case. I might buy another since they are clearance just to have a spare Incase I get lighter plates in the future.

The is by far the most comfortable plate carrier I’ve ever owned. Why are they clearance? I will be buying more colors:) I’m a large guy and this adjust perfectly.

Excellent carrier for short to long duration exercises and events.
Carrier fits 10"x12" plates front and rear and OTTE actually thought it all out to accept 1" thick plates while still velcroing together, nice... thanks OTTE design team, the straps are adjustable, of course, velcro as well and the shoulder pads actually work for timed duties, however in combat and the stresses absorbed by gear this will sit patiently waiting, however as far as grab and go, get it done, peel it off till next time goes = this is an excellent carrier.
TWO SMALL GRIPES - wish the stitching was doubled up and kevlar threads used... but I'm taking care of that myself because I want to keep this carrier running until it can't no more... and 2. NO GRAB HANDLE! NO GRAB HANDLE! NO GRAB HANDLE! Did I mention there's NO GRAB HANDLE?! Hey., what's that... over there? THERE'S NO GRAB HANDLE. : )
Just ordered the dark grey as well - and even saved 10% = thanks Optics Planet, I needed a piece of gear that I could stash and have at the light, tight, ready and this OTTE 10"x12" Plate Carrier fits my requirements perfectly. : )

See y'all out there... CMC/TLS

Good adjustability for smaller people, it's a nice slick carrier and has held up well so far. Easy to add accessories onto it from other manufacturers, and otte has other nice accessories too. Also good value for the money.

I purchased the Poppies of War version and was shocked at how poor quality this carrier is. The patterned material is see through. I don’t know if it’s a 100D or 200D Cordura. Also I nstead of sewing the velcro on top of the patterned Cordura, they just made the velcro part of the carrier if that makes sense. There’s no grab handle for officer down situations, they don’t use hypalon, but more of a thin rubber material for the shoulder and cummerbund pull tabs which feel like they’ll break after a daily use. The 3D mesh inside panels are also easily prone to ripping if the hook velcro touches them. I can’t tell you how disappointed I am with this carrier. I loved the pattern and really wanted to live it, but it literally feels like something you buy from Aliexpress.

A friend of mine got me a short with this pattern when we were in Afghanistan together. The plate carrier is a perfect match to the pattern. The plate carrier is good quality, fits well, and is pretty standard when it comes to comfort.
