This plate carrier is amazing! As an Army veteran I appreciate the quality and thought that went into this carrier. It’s exactly what one would need for the everyday mission. Fits great and looks even better. Also, these guys threw in a Tough Hook for the carrier! Wasn’t expecting that at all. Great service and great site. Thank you!

Extremely well built and its definitely lightweight just like it says in the name. Im really skinny so my only problem is that I really had to tighten the straps a lot. The problem with that is that now there isn’t as much contact with the velcro now.

As the name implies, it’s a lightweight plate carrier, but it’s more than just that. It’s the LOPC from Chase Tactical. I’m familiar with their nylon products and the quality of this is no different. Light, durable, and the Multicam perfectly matches my other Chase products. I plan on putting it through the wringer while I use it for training. I’ll use it as a tool and more importantly, peace of mind.

This plate carrier is great, lightweight, breathable and comfortable. Ive had several different carriers, but this one i can wear all day and not be as fatigued. The mesh cummerbund is great for air flow but the lack of rigidity makes it flimsy when you have pouches mounted. Thats the only drawback i could find.

Awesome kit. Feels like I’m not even wearing plates at all!

Real world use in the military. The plate carrier seems to be very durable so far. Stitching is on point and seems to hold up very well with heavy field use. I love how lightweight and minimalist the design is. Shouldering a weapon is very nice due to how small the shoulder straps are. Overall, I’d say this is extremely comfortable as well. The padding and breathable mesh material doesn’t add unnecessary bulk while keeping your comfort in mind. My only critique would be that the mesh cummerbund could be a bit more rigid and a zip on panel in the back would be a nice touch. Great minimalist plate carrier with a bunch of nice features.

Quality carrier that was delivered quickly

Great simple carrier. Plate pockets are plenty big enough for stand alone level IV ceramics. I added yoga mat behind them to fill it a little more to prevent the plates from shifting around. Velcro on flap for plates could be positioned better, but it works as is.

Fits well, front and back panel are great but the side cummerbunds are floppy so if you mount a lot of gear on the sides it will sag. Perhaps consider a new cummerbund.

Absolutely an amazing carrier. Would recommend for any heavy duty use you could throw at it

In retrospect, for this price I should have bought a Crye Precision jcp.

Awsome plate carrier but wish it had an optional clip cummerbund for quick on and off.
