- Fantastic Job Review by Adam

I wanted this for the long hiking I do out in Colorado. It works great at holding everything I need and it allows me to distribute the weight over my torso. I get less pain when I'm on a long hike it in the mountains. GREAT! (Posted on 5/30/13)Price Value Quality - Well made vest at a great price! Review by CW

The quality work and material that went into making this vest is obvious. The zipper is very heavy duty, but is actually my only gripe since it is sometimes hard to get the zipper started quickly. I am learning how to position everything to get it started but it still takes a little longer than it should. All in all this is a great vest with good adjustments and plenty of MOLLE real estate. It is certainly a great value at the sale price! (Posted on 4/11/13)Price Value Quality - Even fits "warrior sized" fighters Review by Eli

Being what Pat Rogers calls "warrior sized" (5' 7" and a fit 135 lbs), I was concerned that this vest might not go small enough for me to wear without armor underneath. It does fit me, though. I have the adjustment on the back adjusted as small as it will go and it fits well. The adjustments could even be doubled over to get it a bit smaller. It's long enough that I have to wear my war belt over the bottom of the vest. I was worried about this at first, but after some use I've found that I really like this setup. The only thing that could be improved is that there should be a way to secure the adjustment flaps on the inside of the vest. When the vest is adjusted small like I have mine, those flaps really move around and can make the vest take on some strange shapes. Some velcro would go a long way. It's not a big deal, just a minor annoyance. All in all, it's a great vest and it was exactly what I was looking for. (Posted on 3/11/13)Value Quality Price - Another home run Review by Cory

I bought this LBV with about $1,000 worth of other Spec-Ops Brand gear. All of it has been top-notch.Price Value Quality
The D-rings are metal and well anchored.
There is MOLLE everywhere.
The only issue is it doesn't breath as well as mesh, but it does hold more sturdy. (Posted on 1/11/13) - Over Vest Review by raymond

I wore one of these in Baghdad, it was great. I wore all my doodads on this, and simply wore it over my vest. I really liked the modular concept. (Posted on 11/25/12)Price Value Quality - Much better than the competition! Review by Brian
