WE TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF OUR FAVOURITE PL ATE CARRIERS AVAIL ABLE

The Elite Vanquish Plate Carrier has all the features you would expect from a

laser cut loop MOLLE system, compact, reliable and durable the carriers have

multiply accessory fixing points and is also covered in Velcro. The plate carrier

also features hook-and-loop adjustable shoulders, airflow pads for intensified

ventilation on the inside of the platform. The plate carrier in our opinion suffers from not having a

Cummerbund which does limit the amount of pouches you can attach. Should you wish to you can

upgrade the platform to include Cummerbund at an additional cost, but for the price point we feel

that this option should have already been included in the package.

Made of Condor proprietary LCS material, the Elite LCS Vanquish Plate Carrier offers dependable

front and rear protection featuring special internal compartments for both medium and large

ESAPI plates (plates are not included), but because of the density of the material used you can get

away without using dummy plates if you wish. Additional buckles allow you to ignore the MOLLE

and attach a chest rig directly to the plate carrier, which might be Condors admission that the real

estate has limited options for a plate carrier of this price point.

ELITE LCS VANQUISH

CONDOR

Compact this plate carrier isn't! Although it is constructed from

water-resistant Invista 500D Cordura Nylon and packed with

features built around the plate pockets the front of this platform

features an internal kangaroo magazine pouch designed to house

3 magazines. The more than ample Cummerbund also features internal pockets to

house radio gear or accessories. The MOLLE is limited to 5 rows, but that's okay as

you have already secured the most important accessories in the kangaroo pouches.

As you would expect the platform is adjustable for Height and Girth. The dummy

plates can also be removed to increase the size and fine tune the fitting should

you require it. The shoulder straps are generously padded and help in the

distribution of weight, which suggests that you can really load this vest up

with external pouches and accessories.
