You can you might have to do some fitting with it. I use mine for hunting so I can carry all my gear on me.

Most plates will fit, some minor trimming may be necessary. Vest is well made and worth the money with included accessories. Regards

I can't see why you couldn't as the vest falls just below your chest. Unfortunately I don't do traditional sit-ups anymore to give you a true answer. I take on the non-traditional ab/core workout as you would see in the Insanity program. The vest never bunches up for anything else that I do. Its very well built and the velcro straps are sturdy so it keeps it tight to the body. I can say that the vest is one of the best purchases for training purposes that have ever made. You'll be amazed how fast you get used to the weight during your workout. I swear by it and highly recommend it. Hope that helped.

Yes you can remove the weights, they are in like a pocket and all you have to do is pull the upper part back and take out the weights, you can also buy more weights to add to the vest, more weights the bigger the size can't remember how much for each, you can visit hyperwear.com and it will tell you. It is a very nice comfortable vest. Hope this helps.

Yes and no I am sure you could connect it with keepers if some kind. But it was meant for suspenders underneath the vest. Tactical tailor is what I use for suspenders under the vest to hold up my belt.

It is not recommended that you cut this product, it should fit into most jackets with removable armor systems

Mr. Floyd: Yes, I believe this vest should hold between four and six thirty rounder mags for the AK-series weapons. You may only be able to get one mag per pouch because of more curvature on the AK mag than on an AR/M16 version, for which they are actually designed. The pouches are NOT wide and deep enough to hold SKS mags, which have the long, front mounting lip. This is a terrific vest. I put two more AR mags in a Blackhawk belt pouch, and use anchor the whole rig on that same 5.11 Tactical Belt. 250 rounds of rifle ammo and over 100 rounds of pistol ammo is a good bit of firepower; far more than I was able to carry in Vietnam on a patrol.

These vests are Lined with Kevlar, not the ceramic plate inserts, and are IIA rated. Hope this helps!

It uses pressure straps to attach to MOLLE. It should fit without issue as this vest has plenty of back MOLLE.

No, if you are wanting to change your loadout parameters I'd suggest a molle vest or chest rig. It'll cost more in the long run though but you can always just buy a right handed vest like this one. Keep in mind this vest is not stealthy with its velco.

I doubt it. They are if you were going to connect something additional to the vest. Maybe something to hang from it - pouches or something similar I guess....

The Pouches can be removed and repositioned as best fits your needs.. I personally removed all my Pouches because most if them were installed improperly from the Manufacturer. There is also plenty of room to add additional gear as well.. I added a MOLLE Water Bottle Holder and a Combat Medical Bag to my Vest. I also added Equipment Clips to hols a SOG Tamahawk. This is a well constructed Vest and serves me well.

I haven't used it in that capacity, but it pretty much springs into place when you remove it from the pouch, so you'd have to secure it closed to attach to a vest or keep it in the pouch.

you would have to look at the item description for the color...otherwise, on MY vest the pouches are NOT configurable, but there are strips of MOLLE webbing on the left side

Not on the vest. I used the vest on safari in South Africa, and was very happy with it. No problems!

You can definitely put your own stuff in however if you bought it here you would receive it sealed. You need to contact tervis.

It attaches to the leg platform via a Velcro strap not unlike the us army issued pistol holder. I used this certain design with my spec ops uniform an issued gear. But I attached it to my pack or my belt it won't fit with the Alis straps or molle gear. The Velcro strap is too wide but it will fit on the side of a IOTV vest.
