I'd be interested to know how tight a Camelbak Delta-5 vest can be adjusted, since for now it seems like a good option. The OTV covers are unfortunately as cumbersome as my CIRAS vest due to the adjustment panels at the rib cage. The more you stretch the straps, the more the cloth will ripple causing some discomfort. It also limits the adjusting in the first place.

I've been wondering about tailoring it myself, which in the long run would be a good experience. However, other then the accessories (straps, buttons, hinges, buckles etc.), where would I get the textile material? I dislike CADPAT as a whole, but would there be some 'quality' Multicam, ACU, Coyote Brown (and the list goes on) material sold as retail? It's not worth investing if the dye tends to fade at an alarming rate, or that the colours are poorly sampled to the point that the camouflage, isn't.

Keep 'em coming.
