The vest is worth its price. It has not been tested yet. The materials it is made from are of high quality and it's noticeable at first glance. The vest is quite lightweight. When buying it, I was guided by the foam and Coolmax features. Additionally, I bought the ventilated ASPC plates for it, which are supposed to improve ventilation and stiffen the whole vest. My next step will be to add the ROC Ballistic Cummerbund GEN4 ballistic belt, which has foam stiffeners compared to the CPC-ROC 4.1 Templars Gear model, which doesn't have them. The current price is excellent for buying and upgrading it, which is more cost-effective than buying the CPC-ROC 4.1 Templars Gear model. The only downside is that it doesn’t have quick-release buckles on the shoulder straps, but with the use of the ballistic belt I mentioned earlier, you can do without them. Another plus is the option to mount a backpack with flatpack h1 and h2 series zippers.
