RossyM1 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 N00b poster here just starting to get into the game. I am 6'8 and have been looking at getting some webbing or a chest rig. I've been playing around with some old webbing and can't get it to sit around my waist and is instead riding my midriff. Been looking at 8fields chest rigs as they are "one size fits all" but was wondering what taller players or in general make of them?

Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 5, 2016 Supporters Share Posted December 5, 2016 8 fields do one size fits all people who are 5'10" and 75Kg. Rather than looking for a plate carrier body armour type rig look into a proper chest rig, RRVs and LBT 1961 style chest rigs have a LOT of adjustment in them.

RossyM1 Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 Thanks man. Was fairly certain they would be unforgiving. Will look into your recommendations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz JJ Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I found the Ronin Chest Rig to be inexpensive, quick to get on and off and spreads any load well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spatch Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Seems possibly a daft question but surely if you're looking at 'chest' rigs, why are you trying to get it to sit on your waist? A chest rig is designed as described, to sit higher, is on or around the chest area, if you are looking for something to sit around your waist then a belt rig on an H harness is maybe what you're after?
