REVIEW: Tactical Tailor Modular Adjustable Tactical Vest

There are things that come back again and again. At the beginning of tactical vests was one from Eagle Industries Tac Vest and after it became unfashionable to sew on pockets, it became the MOLLE vest. And even though the world keeps turning. There is still the tactical vest. At Tactical Tailor it's called the Modular Adjustable Tactical Vest (MAT-V). We at SPARTANAT took a closer look at it.

The masterpiece on the luxurious body: The MAT-V closes with a zipper and two clasps. D-rings are attached at all (corners and) ends for hanging things. Plus, plenty of MOLLE. What stands out is the mesh that forms the body of the vest and the two black ridges on the shoulders. These are there to provide more stability when aiming the weapon. Attached to them, we also see velcro cable tunnels, which can also be used to secure the drinking tube of the hydration bladder.

Looking at the side, it is immediately apparent that the vest is not closed (left), but is held together by two adjustable straps. A lot can fit in here, even if there is currently little in it. Under the velcro MOLLE on the chest (upper right) there are pockets on the right and left with vertical access. Inside (bottom right): mesh. And a lot of it. When we first touched it, we were surprised at how firm it was. The body of the MAT-V from the tactical tailor consists of over half a centimeter of stacked mesh. So it is very firm yet breathable.

The back is actually a hydration pack (left). The bladder is hung from the top. Here again is the shoulder area with the black ridge (upper right) and the velcro padding of the shoulder (lower right). Here, the vest is constructed as solidly as a plate carrier.

CONCLUSION: A MOLLE vest that can be customized tactically as needed. The advantage is that no ballistic protection fits in here. Ideal if you don't need it. Then this vest is a workhorse that will make the wearer happy in terms of construction and adjustability.

You can get the Tactical Tailor Modular Adjustable Tactical Vest (MAT-V) at SNIPER AS in Multicam for 159.90 Euros.
