>It's not super breathable so I beg to differ
My zoomer nigger, I served in the Army. I "larped" in a modern (post-2005) flak vest, with real steel. That thing is super comfy and lightweight, and already during the sub-10 degrees C temps felt like a nice, puffy cold weather vest.

>I have some LARP vests that are just much thinner nylon but still pretty thick by tactical vest standards
I wonder what you even mean by this.
The average Plate Carrier protrudes inches out of your torso, where as the plain Kevlar / Dyneema vests is mere centimeter or so.
