Automatically inflates upon immersion
Comfort-Flex panels reduce bulk
Neoprene comfort collar
Max-Comfort backstrap
Memory-foam lumbar supports
E-Z fold bladders
Automatically inflates upon water immersion with manual backup. Comfort-Flex panels reduce bulk and keep the inflatable off the neck. A deluxe neoprene comfort collar combines with the Max-Comfort backstrap and memory-foam lumbar supports. E-Z fold bladders inflate to a minimum 35-lb. buoyancy (twice the buoyancy of foam life vests). A clear-view window reveals the cylinder seal indicator. Zippered security pocket and 2" adjustable waistbelt. USCG-Type-III approved. Durable 420-denier nylon shell. One size fits most. Colors: Navy, Tan.
This jacket is very light weight. It takes a little getting used to if you are used to wearing regular life jacket styles. This jacket covers from your diaphram up. It can hold a lot of weight, which is really nice for my conscience. I would have given it a 5 star but I would have liked one more strap under the arms. Can't beat for fishing though. Hope this helps.
This vest is narrow around the neck. It's also very stiff and rubs against my whole neck except the front. I didn't try it more than 5 minutes it was so bad. If I had to wear this for a day my neck would be raw. I have a 17" neck, 180# 5'10". Average Joe adult size.
It looks well made. Maybe if you wear collared shirts it would be OK. Mine is going back.
Bought and used this PFD several times this spring and really like it, it is compact, does not get it the way while fishing and especially like the security of this vest. Never had a problem with inflation while fishing in some pretty good rain storms. I like the size and compactness of this vest. Very nice fit , comfortable to wear, would recommend to others interested in an inflatable PFD. Liked it so much I bought a second one for anyone that may be in the boat as well.
