Marmot Tactical Vest Durable Mesh Vest with Detachable Belt & Holster

What can I say, I was surprised with the quality. When I saw it was a large I thought it wouldn't fit seeing how I'm on the small side but the adjustability is good. The modeubility is a nice touch. You can make it as big and small as needed. All the fabric is a little stiff but that should brake in with time. There is plenty of storage space on the vest but I wish the mag punches were a little bigger. They are a little hard to get my 30 round banana mags in, but I suspect that they will loosen up with time. Only other complaint is the holter should have a better attachment set up but its good enough. It fits my polish p64 pretty well and even tried my new model army for giggles. It fits but the 8" barrel stocks out. The belt holds my knife well too. I cant wait to use it hog hunting this winter. Will be nice to have everything on me instead of having to log a bag around. For the value it's a great vest. Will definitely be putting it to work.

main thing i wana say about this is im a bigger fella im 5'9" and 255 lbs give or take a few lbs and i still can fit into this after a few adjustments on it were made via the straps on its sides. so super nice adjustability id say as for durability i havnt been able to test this hardcore yet but so far shoving things in and out of it onto it and taking them off and putting things even attached to areas where their not ment to be and taking those items off just by yanking em off it they are good and so is the vest it doesnt seem to rip apart with any ease or be of a super low quality material i also was thinking that for the price the velcro would be a lower quality but somehow even that was a good quality overall this isnt a bad vest for the money done get me wrong it isnt stopping bullets or probably even a good knife stab but a quick slash at it and your probably not going to feel it. im actually shocked this was only i wana say 54 bucks when i got it. and as for the weight if that concerns you it feels very light i woudlnt say like a feather but it isnt heavy by any means

I am big on checking the entire spectrum of reviews and tend to pay particular attention to the negative reviews for a product before I actually pull the trigger. That being said, despite all of the negative reviews and the relevant causes for concern I decides to make the purchase and see for myself. So, in this spirit, allow me to address all of the negative reviews you will encounter here in your research. Fit: a lot of reviews will complain that it is not actually sized as described. None of those reviews supported their claims with photos, which lead me to doubt their validity. As a 6'1" middle aged man, pushing 300lbs with a dad body and whiskey barrel chest and belly and a size 38 waist, out of the package this does NOT fit. Guess what though, with six long and adjustable tri-glide fastened straps and adjustable belt (that's is also detachable) with a few moments spent making the necessary adjustments, I was able to improve the fir of the vest to near perfection. Velcro attached pistol holster is not secure, noisy and a poor fit for most sidearms. Well, the holster was able to accommodate my M&P 2.0 with 4" barrel, considered to be compact, and remained attached tightly and made zero Velcro noise while removing and replacing swiftly and forcefully and tugging on the pouch itself while the weapon was holstered to simulate potential snagging or bruahing. No movement and no noise- it is possible that the fabrication has been improved since these reviews Not actual Marmot brand: this may be accurate. The attached retail tag featured the Marmot logo on mine, but I could not help but feel like it could likely be a replica, seemed outdated and a little blurry. Another common complaint: not professional grade tactical vest: it's a $40 product, you can't be serious with your expectations- you will be getting what you are paying for. However, this is an exceptional quality product with my sole agreement being in th quality of th zipper. It is janky and you can just tell it will inevitably ruin itself, which is why I was prepared prior to purchasing the item to replace the zipper with a component of better quality the moment it fails. Above all, I agree this is an entry level tactical vest and won't be my final venture into chest rigs, plate carriers and the like, but I really believe if you enter this transaction with realistic expectations, it will be really difficult to find a lot to disappoint with.

I'm very happy with this. I don't really use it for it's intended purpose, I record a lot of video, and all the pockets on this thing allow me to carry a ton of extra stuff, flashlights, laser pointers, batteries, and camera accessories (lighting units, SD cards, etc.) with little effort and easy organization. Even the pistol holster fits my thermal camera, so it has been put to good use. Adjusting it for my large frame was a bit of a trick, but it fits well and secures easily. Originally I was just looking for a set of webbing to attach things to, but this wasn't much more expensive (less than $10), so I opted for it, and I haven't regretted it.

here is my run down on the tactical vest 1) first thing I noticed (and inspected for) was the quality of the stitching. All too often you get a garment and loose threads and uneven stitching. Not the case on this vest 2) This vest is very adaptable in terms of size. There are 3 adjustable straps on each side that allow this vest to fit a wide variety of body sizes. 3) storage options are amazing - 4 @30 round mag sleeves, 4 pistol mag pockets, shotguns shells at the ready, interior pockets to store more or body armor panels, there is even additional storage on the heavy duty belt and Molle straps across the back. 4) The mesh base of this vest provides quality air flow to minimize the heat build-up to the wearer 5) The pistol mag is strapped for positive retention, but still accessable enough for easy draw and not having to fight to get your pistol ready. 6) I can not attest to its durability in true tactical situations, but I did wear it out to the range today and found it very comfortable considering the amount of gear I had stored. All things considered , including the very reasonable price and very fast shipping, this is a 5 Star item

This appeared to be a decent quality vest, but the zipper broke on it the very first time I put it on. So I had to return it. Also, the Zipper operates on left side which is pretty unusual.

Aloha This is a great vest! First of all I’m 5,6” 155 pounds and this vest fits great! And is very adjustable. I was looking for a tactical vest for airsofting that would hold my m4 clips ,my 1911 mags and my other gear for gaming. This vest can do it all plus has a holster for my 1911 airsoft pistol ! This vest is very durable, it’s made of high density 600D polyester breathable mesh that makes it light weight. Which is great because I live in Hawaii where The climate is in the 80s all year long. On the lower back of the vest has a molly system for more attachments . There is an detachable belt that helps secure the vest on even better which also has 2 detachable pouches that I can use for more pistol mags or flashlight storage. There is also 2 inside zipper pockets that I use for field maps. There is a place on the front right pocket for shotgun shells which is removable so I can put my velcro airsoft logo swag on. This is a great buy for $36.99 plus Prime free shipping!

Vests are as advertised and they seem to be of a good quality. Both wife and I are happy with the storage capacity so we can be ready to mix it up when it’s time to fight.
