Forest Ranger Posted May 9, 2016 Author Posted May 9, 2016 Gonna go back with elastic on the undersides, armor's a little too tight to get on, and off with cotton webbing. 1 Quote

Retrofire Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 I sewed elastic to both side of my cotton webbing straps to give the front and back pieces a bit of "flex". You can only see the cotton between the plates but there's elastic where it attaches to the armor. The bund and cod look great! 2 Quote

Retrofire Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 The clips look great and it's awesome to see your belt assembly all together. I bet that flight suit can't get there fast enough 2 Quote
