Head Moderator Jedi_Master Posted September 22, 2019 Head Moderator Share Posted September 22, 2019 A plate carrier is designed to protect your vital organs, not your whole torso. The front plate (bag) should sit two finger widths below the collarbone; use the shoulder straps to adjust the rear plate (bag) so it is in line with front, and not sagging lower on your back.

I’m a big guy, 6ft4 and fluctuate between 20-21st so I know how it is. I found the condor exo plate carrier fits well but since buying it found chest rigs loads better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted September 22, 2019 Supporters Share Posted September 22, 2019 Taiwan Gun now sell plate carriers for bigger built players , just because someone’s a big lumbering ox of a guy why shouldn’t he get to have the Gucci kit as well ? 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tackle Posted September 23, 2019 Moderators Share Posted September 23, 2019 Unfortunately pc's aren't always flattering to the larger chap, too much belly below the pc is not a good look, chest rigs worn lower look way better, are generally more comfortable & less likely to cause you to overheat.
