i am a 5'6 and 90 pound fifteen year old. would this vest fit me snuggly? how well would this hold a grenade?

I keep a grenade on the "accessory pouch" on top, it's kind of big to hold weird things like that. And it should fit you fine. It can be tightened a good bit to fit your frame. My wife is 5'3" and wears one too.

Yes, I am 5'6 as well and it fits okay. It does tend to slide off the one shoulder but not tremendously. There is a pouch for miscellaneous things which could hold a grenade.

It should fit, but will not be snug if you only weigh 90 pounds...bought it for my nephew who is 5'4" and weighs 85, and it hangs loose on him. It does hold grenades.

The vest is (easily) adjustable so it will fit once adjusted, but it doesn't hold grenades and I have an m203 and some thunder bees so I know.

I guess that it might hold a grenade, but I'm not sure how well. If it does fit, you can only fit one. The vest itself is adjustable and might be made snug. I am a little bigger, so I wouldn't know.

Yes you would, this vest is vary thin anD vary light weight so you should be able to fit a tac vest over this without any problem. hope this helps.

First off, i wouldn't buy this vest unless your buying this for a kid, simply because the vest is too small for an average adult, but as far as materials goes, it is just as adequate as any other vest in its price range, i would recommend getting a UTG vest instead its more bang for your buck and it will fit the average adult [5'7-6'] so to answer your question, it is a good vest for a kid vs. an adult.

I haven't actually worn mine and it is up for the winter, but I think that the sides are adjustable. I was advised by my friend who I tried on in September when it was blazing hot and his fit, that it is suppose to be worn snug. His was so nice and cool and the weight of the vest eased the tension in my neck. I weigh between 150 and 190 and ordered L/XL. Tried it on when I got it. Fit fine. Am looking forward to wearing mine this summer.

im 5'5", flux between 118-123lbs and just purchased the xs today. i went to a store to try on the sizes and the small, while it fit, wasn't snug. a lot of the reviews i've read say to err on the side of tighter to prevent the vest from riding up while in use. i like that the xs feels like a secure hug. the only thing is that the bottom of the vest ends around my natural waist, which won't be as warm.

I'm 6'2", 240 (mostly in front). I have the 2XL. The side panel are very adjustable. From my settings, I could probably open it up 8+ inches more. One thing to note is that the vest is quite rigid. It stands off my shoulders, and I have the top tightened all the way. I probably should have got the XL.

My vest is a small, so I can't speak to your size. I can say that I have mine at the smallest setting. I'm about a 30-31 inch waste, 5' 2". The vest has quite a bit of wiggle room. I can wear it over a hydration pack, no problem.

I do not use this vest. I bought it for my 11 year old nephew to use when playing Airsoft and/or paintball. He is, however, obsessed with all things military and knows a lot about various weapons, ammunition, etc. I asked him if he thought it would hold AK47 magazines. (He was wearing it earlier this evening). He checked a few of the pockets and estimated that one or two of the pockets might hold a 30 round magazine. He has not used it for this though so I cannot be 100% certain.

That's crazy/awesome if you are even able to consider a 60 lb weighted vest at your weight. I'm a 5'6" avg/small frame male, and this fits me perfectly fine, not to wide or anything. It's adjustable enough (front to back/top to bottom) that I think it would work for virtually any body type. As far as the width, it fits pretty close to the sides of my head as I pull it on/off, so I don't think width would be an issue for anyone.

No. It will be too small. I'm 6' and 25 years old and am athletic build at 190lbs and it was too snug on my torso.

As a 6' 1" 125 pound guy, it fits reasonably if I thighten all the straps all the way, but still a bit looser than I'd like. I'd imagine you'd find this vest too loose and floppy for your size, unless you plan on wearing a pretty heavy coat of some kind underneath..

My husband is 6'2" and weighs 170, and we got the Large. I'd try the Large. It fits quite snugly. I think it'll be fine. If not, Amazon is very good at exchanging. Just rewrap and send back. Then reorder. They credit your account as soon as UPS scans the bar code. When we exchanged the shirt for the vest, the turnaround was very quick.

I don't think you would be really comfortable in that vest. While it is adjustable, my son who is thick through his shoulders and chest is only 5'5 and about 150lbs wears it and it fits him very well. I would think for a man of your size you may want to consider another option. Unfortunately, it will probably cost you considerably more money than this vest cost. I would recommend checking with Blackhawk! or LA Police Gear, both have a pretty extensive inventory and pretty good prices and the quality of the merchandise that I have purchased has been great. Good luck!

Yes it should fit you. Idk if you're slim, or tall, but the sides of the vest are adjustable.

I am 5'9", 210 lbs with a 38" waist and this vest fits me well, with only slight adjustments out-of-the-box. I have worn it on 3 or 4 occasions for long durations (8+hrs) and I have noticed that it is for the most part very well made for a vest in its price range. I would not compare it with a rig that cost hundreds of dollars, nor would I quite put it in a "military" bracket, but for what I use it for it works well. I am going to get a hydration bladder someday, as this vest supports one.

Jim I want to say yes, but I don't know for sure b/c the vest in the my shed packed away for now. I do remember adjusting it a lot so it would fit. I have a 35-36" waist and I'm 5-9. I really like my harness. It works better than my voodoo bag(ass pack from Marines).
