That doesn't mean it will be durable. NC Star is marketed towards airsofters, too. If the assault panel is more robust than their older stuff, great. But from what I've seen and heard so far, it's not really even on par with FLYYE and Pantac gear.

This is the problem with giving everybody a video camera. It would have taken 2 minutes to read that information and look at relevant pictures.
In any case, that video said very little of durability outside of his baconing elastic. We also have no idea what the guy's experience is either with that vest (maybe he's owned it for a week or maybe he bought it when it released) or any other gear. Though really, that wouldn't matter much because to his credit, he said very little that would be either subjective or require knowledge of the broader market. As a run down of features and a few deficiencies that he's experienced, it was a decent review. It doesn't offer any insight into build quality or durability.
Also, always be skeptical when somebody gives reproduction or lower end gear a score, like his 8.5/10. Really, 8.5? Where would the many real steel PCs that we know to be better made and with better features fall above that range? Just of the PCs that I've owned, I'd want some score separation between say, the Crye AVS and the Eagle Plate Carrier. The AVS is very clearly a better carrier with a better design, and I'm sure this reviewer would agree that both are better than the LBX PCs. But he doesn't have enough space in his X/10 rating system to account for the differences unless the floor is like, 7 and he uses a lot of significant figures. In other words, his little score is complete bullshit and should be regarded as such.
