Freaking love it!
I bought the SF plate carrier earlier this year. Not long after setting it up I was in the field training and putting it to work. I have not had a single issue and freaking love it! It's a good feeling to know your equipment isn't going to fail you when you're training or out in the field!

Shellback Tactical SF Plate Carrier buy it now don't even hesitate!
I'm 6'3 220lbs I have finally found a plate carrier that fits like a glove I purchased the XL it fits my 11x14 plates and 6x6 side plates no problem. I have tried many other companies (Crye Precision, LBT, 5.11, Rothco, Condor) and this by far is my favorite and the most comfortable plate carrier I have owned especially fully kitted out with plates and mags and other essentials. Good padding, good velcro and breathable I couldn't ask for more. The shipping was fast and the quality is there. Thank you Shellback Tactical!

finally found one that fits.
I love how compact this carrier is. It doesn't ride up under your chin when you sit down, it doesn't rub against my belt, it's easy to adjust and really comfortable - even with 16 lbs of plates. Would recommend this to anyone under 6', it's a smart buy and and easy decision

good product, cumberbund too large
It is a good overall product however, after tightening the cummerbund as small as it will go with the cord, it is still too large, it will fit but then you do not get to use the radio pouch that is built in. I’m 5’6 and 153 lbs and I have a size small.

4 1/2
Shipped quickly, reasonably priced & well made. Requires a little more effort to put on, when you have magazines in kangaroo pouch. Can’t raise the flap high enough. Plates fit perfectly,
-
good but one issue
It’s a good carrier but it’s very hard to put it on when you have mags in the front pouch. You are not able to lift the flap up enough to get it where you want it

Not too bad, Serves it’s purpose
I really like that Shellback makes a XL carrier but I wish it had some sort of straps to secure 10X12 plates. Carrier fits me well and is comfortable however my 10 x 12” plates shift around inside the plate pocket horribly Which gives the vest when worn a sloppy appearance. Granted, when it matters Looks don’t matter. The Molly seems to be well made, I have numerous attachments and everything is secured properly and securely.
