The front I'm happy with, as I laced it such that it has a nice curve to it. I wanted it to be a bit more rigid against incoming thrusts, and where I've laced it to make the curve, it has a nice arch to it. The back I had some "learning curve" to deal with, and would do it differently in the future. I'm NOT happy with that gap on the left side... my clever idea to integrate the buckles into the weave turns out to create too large a gap. I'm considering either punting and going to a lacing system, or else removing those buckles and straps, and putting them on the outside of the harness so it'll cinch down the way it should (I prefer my armor to fit snugly, just like you wear gloves that are a size too low to protect your hands if you think you're going to get into a fight).
