I used to have the PLCE chest webbing this is what I carried in it:
I did have a Crusader canteen i think i remember it did fit but the lip stuck out a bit (not comfy).
I've got a feeling it was a tight fit too...dunno but I prefered using the smaller slimmer US army bottle and mug.
I found it comfortable, but i think i felt it was a little un-adaptable for me. very little space for extra kit
you can add a pouch on the small bit of webbing belt at the side/rear.
or theyhave poppers on the left shoulder to fit a radio pouch, i got the pouch which i used to carry a "Amstrad" walkman in! (t'was a while ago!!)
quite cool because you could fiddle with the buttons without opening the pouch. it would also be good for things like a sat nav, or mobile phone.
disadvantages?
as it's sat on your chest you can't cool down as easily.
as i said, a space and changability of it.
you can't put much in your jacket chest pockets.
but you can adapt around all these things
