Brilliant vest
As a lightweight, tactical vest, this is a cracker. It comes in one size, which is a great plus. So no matter your size, this vest will do you fine.
Do not be mistakes into thinking that this is a Flak jacket or the likes. It’s purely a multi accessory, multi use vest. If you are into Airsoft or paintballing then this vest is for you. Alternatively, if you are in the law enforcement or security business, this is a useful addition to your kit.
The vest is mounted of a nylon mesh giving it both ventilation and a lighter weight. It zips up the front and has 2 straps down each side for fitting it to your body. It will also adjust at the shoulder, which a lot of these vests do not. I have a very light body mass and I got this vest to fit perfectly in no time, and with no effort, at all.
Starting on the inside of the vest, there are 2 zip up pockets left and right. These may be useful for documentation or similar. The mesh used is strong and lightweight. To the rear of the body you have a reinforced pull handle for cell extraction or rescue. There is a compartment for a hydration bladder. I’m not sure what size you can get in there though. On the hydration bladder compartment there are some Molle straps for attaching additional items.There are also magazine/torch pouches. On the upper back is a large Velcro area where you can put your company or personal patches.
To the front of the vest are a radio/phone pouch on the left shoulder. Just below that there is a removable 3-pocket pistol mag pouch. Again this would be useful for magazines/torch or for batteries. Below this is the removable pistol holster. This is what it is and I don’t see that you could use it for anything else. On the other side of the vest there is a shotgun shell pouch and this has 2 large utility pouches underneath it. Attached to the bottom of the vest is a heavy duty adjustable belt which is removable and can be used as a standalone item.
The materials used in the manufacture of this product are of a high quality and I can see this vest lasting a long time even if you put it through the mill and use and abuse it. It is extremely comfortable to wear and I am sure that during long time wear you won’t even know you have it on. The accessories that come with the vest are also very well made and being able to add and take away from the vest is a great asset.
A top class product from a top class seller. Yakeda always come up trumps with their good and I would recommend this vest to future buyers.
Declaration: I received this product without charge, without obligation, in the hope that I might review it. This has not affected my assessment of it – it remains objective and unbiased. One of the reasons I have taken a number of photos is that I do not want you to take my word for what it is like – I want you to judge for yourself.
