I'm 6'1" and 250, the K-Zero is a beast for a small carrier. First time out I ran a fairly heavy loadout and did an 8 hour shift. No issues, no hot spots. One caveat, I only ran IIIA soft plates.
i think the subzero will work best for me. Just an everday civilian who wants armor incase SHTF didnt want to spend $300 on just the PC but under $200 for a battle tested brand is a good life insurance policy and that leaves me a little extra to put towards quality plates
I’m 6/3 220 and it fits me really well. I do like a tighter feel anyways. The only thing I’ll say I “don’t” like is the lack of padding. I put that in quotation because it has yet to give me any hot spots or bother me.
the lack of padding on the sub zero reminds me of a mix of a JPC and a Slickters.. JPC for the back of the plate bags, and the straps of a Ferro Slickster. PS I own the Kzero for almost 2 years now, very happy with it.
I have the k zero and I got it built out as if I was going to war 8 rifle mags 4 pistol mags micro map back panel with 3liter hydration bladder ifak flex cuffs multi tool some shotgun rouds for my shockwave for breaching and in my opinion the k zero is one of the best plate carriers out there I would say it’s better than the crye plate carriers
My only concern with the sub zero is the shoulder pad comfortability. I’ll wear 15-20lbs of plates for events such as tactical games or proving grounds, with slick setups. If I added good shoulder pads to it would it feel similar to the k-zero on the shoulders?
the size noted on the website (Medium/Large) relates to the plates you will be using, not body size. If you click the "Sizing" tab on the product page, it will explain all that. But to answer your question, mine is Medium, which fits standard 10x12 plates.
@HarleyWood23 Good Day, a further question regarding sizing the rig, I know you mentioned in the initial video how you could adjust at two points on the Cumberbund, and how you liked the particular adjustment you used because it didn't expose the velcro to tear up the shirt. All that said, when you said you maxed out the size, is that with both adjustments at full extension or just one of the two maxed out. I don't mind having the velcro exposed if needed and just slap a patch of the inverse velcro to protect clothing. I'm a bit larger than you but like the concept and want to see if I can make it work! Thanks as always for your videos!

I would suggest getting the k zero for someone that started out saying they just wanted a plate carrier and for it to be slim and low profile eventually you going to want to add more stuff to it causing more weight and with the sub zero not having enough shoulder pads it’s going to be uncomfortable and with the way the world is going your going to need to be able to carry more gear and still be comfortable I wear mine 3days straight for training the only thing I would change on the k zero would be the cumberbund and go with the warfighter cumberbund

I guess for a civilian use case with it being made for concealment it’s a great choice

the lack of padding is most noticeable for me, in the straps. The K-Zero is much more comfortable in that regard. Thanks for watching.
Just saw this video and not sure if you will see this but the k-zero cummerbund back clips should be removable unless they have changed it

Thanks I almost ordered one and Im a little bigger than you. I'll stick with the K19.
Yeah, the K19 is a great choice.
@HarleyWood23 Right I have both like you and actually prefer the k-19 over the k0 but was going to get a third for a different location.
Maybe I am wrong but at :42 seconds your gun looks to be over gassed..
Bro, I am 6'1.5 210 (lean muscular build), and my Sub Zero works perfect. It is my slick carrier for high-speed training.
yeah man. big difference between my chubby ass and you. It's maxed out on me. lol. Thanks for watching.
I would pick the sub zero over the k19. K19 is good but too damn hot and it is much harder to shoulder your weapon.
That suppressor so loud I had to wear ear pro to watch this video.
That’s not a suppressor. It’s a linear compensator that helps direct flash and sound forward.
What size is your sub-zero?

@HarleyWood23 ok, I bought the medium

@@MichaelBuckley284 that was only with one maxed out, not the piece that would expose the Velcro
You need to walk with a bit more of a wider stance. No bueno when targets shoot back and your tripping on ur own steps.
