Front and back armor pockets accept medium or large Swimmer, SAPI, or ESAPI plates up to 10.25 x 13.25 inches. No ballistic plates or soft armor are included. Available in Black (Regular and 2XL\/3XL), Coyote Brown (Regular), and MultiCam (Regular).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Carry a Full Loadout\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rothco Laser Cut MOLLE Plate Carrier Vest features 14 rows of laser-cut MOLLE on both the front and back panels, giving wearers a clean, snag-reduced surface for attaching pouches, accessories, and mission-specific gear. Loop fields on the panels accommodate flags and morale patches. The adjustable, detachable cummerbund adds five rows of MOLLE webbing on each side and includes hook-and-loop pockets for side armor plates, supporting attachments up to 6 x 7 inches. That combination of front, back, and side attachment real estate means a wearer can configure the carrier for a specific role without carrying unnecessary bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eComfort During Extended Wear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior of the Rothco Laser Cut MOLLE Plate Carrier Vest is lined with breathable air mesh padding designed to promote airflow and reduce heat buildup during long missions or shifts. Quick-release buckle shoulder straps with detachable pads allow fast adjustment and a secure fit across different body sizes. Hydration hose attachment points on both shoulder straps let wearers integrate a hydration pack without routing hoses awkwardly around the carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePractical Details That Add Up\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn admin-style chest pocket on the Rothco Laser Cut MOLLE Plate Carrier Vest provides accessible storage for a phone, keys, or everyday carry items without requiring a separate pouch. An emergency drag handle on the back panel supports rapid extraction when needed. The Regular-size variant is constructed from 600D polyester with ABS plastic hardware; the MultiCam variant uses 1000D Cordura nylon for the shell. Both constructions use hook-and-loop straps inside the armor pockets to hold plates securely in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlate pockets:\u003c\/strong\u003e Front and back pockets sized 15 x 11 x 11.75 inches with hook-and-loop retention straps for medium or large Swimmer\/SAPI\/ESAPI plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLaser-cut MOLLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 rows on front and back panels plus loop fields for patches; cummerbund adds 5 rows per side\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable cummerbund:\u003c\/strong\u003e Detachable design with hook-and-loop side armor pockets accommodating attachments up to 6 x 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreathable interior:\u003c\/strong\u003e Air mesh padding promotes airflow to reduce heat buildup during extended wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuick-release shoulder straps:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buckle-adjustable with detachable pads and hydration hose attachment points on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEmergency drag handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rear-mounted handle for rapid extraction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eBlack \/ Regular\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eBlack \/ 2XL-3XL\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eCoyote Brown \/ Regular\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eMultiCam \/ Regular\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRTC-3743\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRTC-37430\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRTC-3747\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRTC-2734\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3.8 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e4 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3.8 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3.8 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShell material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e600D Polyester \/ ABS Plastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e600D Polyester \/ ABS Plastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e600D Polyester \/ ABS Plastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1000D Cordura Nylon\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePlate pocket dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003e15 x 11 x 11.75 in (front and back)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePlate compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003eMedium or Large Swimmer \/ SAPI \/ ESAPI (up to 10.25 x 13.25 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMOLLE rows (front\/back)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003e14 rows each panel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCummerbund MOLLE rows\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003e5 rows per side\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCummerbund attachment max\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003e6 x 7 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePockets\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBallistic protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"4\"\u003eNone.
