Is the padding thick going over the shoulders or does it thin out? Want to use it for an ED-209 costume but, need heavy padding on the shoulders.

The TMAS Yogi Chest Protector thins out a litter but works fine. I bought it for my nephew who is 14 but built like a 17 year old. He practices with his friends and the do kicks and punches and he hasn't complained about it yet and he has it for about 2 months.

It depends on how it fits. If you have the proper size there should be SOME padding over the shoulder (rather than strap). It is nearly the same thickness throughout, narrowing down a bit. If it fits way too small, there won't be much pad on the shoulder. It isn't going to be very load bearing and it isn't really thick - just enough to deaden a blow a little. For what it is designed for it works great and we're satisfied with it and TMAS as well.

The padding on the shoulders is not as thick as the chest and sides. It is only padded enough to provide comfort to the wearers shoulders. I would consider it quilted more than padded.

The padding thin out for the regular TMAS Hogu Chest Protector & the TMAS Deluxe Tournament Hogu has a better padding over the shoulders.

I am a woman and it was fine. (36C fit fine) I am broad in the shoulders also. Hope that helps. Nice suit.

No! Very comfortable especially if you wear it across your body vs over one shoulder but either way you'll be fine!

The padding is about one quarter to three eighths of an inch thick. It is definitely thick enough for me.

I'm not tall and thin like most of the reviews for this product. I'm 5'11 and 255. Would this work for me? Man boobs, big gut and all? I want to carry my smallest gun (Springfield XDs) when I'm in the office and I've been looking for something like this to wear under a tucked in dress shirt and tie with no jacket.

Have not had any problem with the back padding (actually helps to distribute the weight more evenly in the backpack). However we live in a drier climate and probably can not give a fair "review" of this feature. Overall it's an excellent backpack for the money.

I'm 5'11", 210 and can wear this over a winter coat. It's got more room than I can fill, lots of pockets and some with mesh dividers. I would rate it heavy duty and large, and I haven't even filled it yet. Everything on it is straight and squared away. Hope this helps.

The way it was sold it's not low ride. I don't know if there are accessories that can make it such. I wear it on a tactical belt so it sticks out a bit. Written on a standard pant belly IMO it would be close to the body but still allow good draw. Now with a vest, I really don't know. A vest could pretty much obstruct anything I would guess.

I wear a med. shirt & a guy that has this same vest is a 2 x. I have the straps at the top as little as they will go. It is a little bulky around the shoulders on me. I just got it this year so I just figured it will take a little getting used to. I thought about taking it to a seamstress to get the top a little less bulky. I hope this helps.

J. Haley, the pad for the shoulder is nice and padded pretty comfortably. It really takes the weight off your shoulder when you wear it across the body. My camera with the battery pack and lens is pretty heavy and this strap takes off all the weight. I love it and highly recommend it. The padding is nice.

Truthfully, I bought several Built bags at the same time so have not used this one, but plan to this fall. I just tried putting the straps over my shoulder and while I could get them on the shoulder, it was tight and I doubt I would do it often. The bag is quite large--bigger than I expected when ordering, but I like the style for the fall and winter. As mentioned, I have two other Built computer bags in more traditional briefcase styles. Hope this is of some help to you.

Just got this holster. I'm fairly new to concealed carry, so trying some different setups. I'm also 6'1 225 lbs. On anything lighter that a thick jacket or coat, this is what I consider very noticeable...even without the gun. I thought I would like a shoulder holster...but this is not the one for me. That said, it's definitely is built for carrying a full frame gun, as has been mentioned in other reviews. Holds a Sig P227 carry model with length to spare. From smaller pistols, definitely look elsewhere.

This will not fit heavyset individuals. This is a military holster designed for slim, young men. I have a 44" chest and it barely fits me on the largest configuration (although over my body armor).

This jacket should do a very good job at protecting you. It is heavy, and thick. With the shoulder and elbow padding you should feel very protected. Just be careful sizing chart is way off. It is about 3 sizes too small. If you wear a XL order a 4xL

The one I received looks similar but not exact to the photo. I wear it under my cloths and can be seen around the neck-line. as would a razor back tank ect. it is a little noticeable but not very? I suggest a t shirt under because after about an hour it really starts hurting my arm-pit area. Other than that it does take a lot of pressure off the back and is a noticeable change. I wear it on the elliptical and at the office (where I need it most is at my desk)
