Light, flexible, good padding, easy to move around.
Weaknesses:
Not really any read below.
Review:
Great product. Easy to move around in it, slid, dive. And is very comfortable. No one will even know you have it on. It doesnt have any padding near the front of the neck so you dont get that hard to breathe feeling. I love it. And people say chest protectors are for wimps, but if it saves me from taking a few painfull hits and is not a hassle to wear at all... then why not?
Conclusion:
EXCELLENT... A MUST HAVE! gave a 9 because nothing is perfect.
Rating:
9 out of 10

Review:
When I first got this chest protector in the mail I didn't know what to expect. But when it did come the box was very small and I thought they made a mistake. I opened it and it was so light. So I tried it on and I said wow this fit like a glove and has lot of protection. So I decided to go play paintball and it never irritated me like other chest protectors. I forgot had it on, lol. I got shot a few times ind some just bounced off. I was very happy with the Empire Chest Vest.
Conclusion:
This product is awesome. I would pick this over any other chest protector. It is light, flexible, offers protection. You should try it for yourself. 9/10 because nothing in this world is perfect.
Fits just like a t-shirt. NO MOVEMENT RESTRICTIONS AT ALL.
Weaknesses:
Need more sizes available. Mine is a large/x-large.
Review:
This is hands down the best chest protector. KUDOS to the developers at Empire. At last a protector that does not restrict the movement. It is made well and seems to be pretty durable in the woodsball department. I hope that this will revolutionize the industry. Other companies need to learn from this and compete. We need new and better gear made all the time.
Conclusion:
Get this protector before any others. You will not be dissapointed.I give it a 9 out of 10 only because nothing is perfect and I don't want them to stop research and development.
Had to wait long time to get, backordered because popular i guess
Review:
I can't believe I am the first "chest-protector wussy" to review this thing, considering most places have a hard time keeping it in stock.
This thing is actuall y pretty cool, not big and bulky like most chest protectors. it breathes well and moves well. i used on a pretty hot day, with a t-shirt underneath it and a long sleeved t-shirt over it and i didn't get hot at all. also because of its slim design nobody even knew i had it on. i really like it because it has padding on theback and even the upper arm which is great because i mostly play in the woods and there is nothing woodsballers like better than shooting people in the back from about 15 feet away. it justifies sitting in the tree for 30 minutes i guess.
plus, no welts. at the end of the day it is kind of nice not having the wife thinking i have ringworm.
of course there will always be those who say, pain is good, but i remember kid n' play singing "ain't gonna hurt nobody" and those guys pulled plenty of chicks in those house party movies.
Conclusion:
If you want a chest protector, get this one, if you do not want a chest protector then do not get one. this one works well, and looks well doing it. makes you look like you workout, but not ah-nold workout like others
