A light and comfortable vest that will be suitable for less demanding tasks. It has space for ballistic inserts and original pouches fitting AR15 and AK magazines. It is well made, which I could only assess after seeing it in person. A nice addition is the chest pocket fastened with Velcro. I bought it on promotion, also using KSK points.
Tactical Plate Carrier vest made of high-quality oxford polyester characterized by high resistance to mechanical damage. The material on the inside has been additionally covered with PVC coating to increase its resistance to moisture.
It is equipped with Velcro-locked pockets for ballistic plates. Three magazine pouches for AR15/M4 type magazines are located on the front. Elastic loops keep them from falling out. There are PALS webbing on the front, sides and back for attaching MOLLE system armor.
A velcro panel has been sewn on the chest, allowing to attach any emblems, such as the national flag, unit emblem or Morale Patches.
The vest is fastened from the front with strong Velcro fasteners. The model is equipped with adjustable suspenders. The cummerbund belt is connected to the back with elastic loops, increasing the comfort of use and freedom of movement.

I have used this tactical vest for over a year and I think that for the price, it performs very well. The quick release and putting-on system works thanks to strong Velcro, which is quite loud and requires a bit of strength to open. A big plus is the spacious inner pocket under the panel – it easily fits a phone. The straps are made of high-quality thermoplastic rubber. The dark olive colour is also an advantage. Overall, I recommend this vest.

I have a slight build, so I regret that the adjustment on the shoulders is quite limited. After inserting plates, the vest sags slightly, making the plates land on my stomach instead of the chest. This isn’t a big problem unless you need to use a tactical belt with extra gear. Ventilation is practically non-existent. The plate pocket is not perfectly fitted (a 30x25 plate moves inside). I’ve been using it for the second year now and despite the mentioned flaws, it works well for a beginner – the seams hold, the pouches work properly, and the materials are rather durable.
