Very happy
Asked to be notified when the black Multicam Slickster was back in stock and the second they emailed me to let me know was very excited and the service didn't disappoint. No problem with the online menus, got everything ordered hassle free and within 3 days happily mauled my postal carrier for super sweet Slickster. Easy peasy. Appreciated the stickers and what-not that came with it. Keep up the awesomeness.

First impressions from a LEO
My plates are 10x12”, so per the description the medium is the right size. However, the plates are 1” thick and were a tight squeeze into the carrier and took several minutes of work to get in. And I accidentally ripped off the label doing so, but it doesn’t appear to have affected the stitching. I’d recommend going up a size if your plates are thick. Upsides are that the design is very clean and slick (hence the name), and the elastic keeps the plates from shifting. Bought this primarily to go over my soft armor, so the Velcro cummerbund aids in quick donning. The flat, unpadded shoulder straps have been comfortable so far over a tee shirt, and padding certainly isn’t necessary when worn over my external carrier. Cummerbund pockets hold plenty of TQs and other first aid gear; bought the KTS shingle to carry rifle mags. Can’t comment on durability yet, but this should be OK as it’s not for daily wear, but active shooter calls.
