Found these very easy to insert and were not as heavy as had thought they might be. Very happy with how they feel. Hopefully never have to actually use them.
Comfortable. Fits good with my carrier. I'd recommend wearing a tee shirt under the vest if it's going to be on for a few hours or more. Because of sweat. Make sure you clean it good.
