Absolutely love this life jacket!
Love the fit and style of this life jacket! I am a 120 lb 5’4” woman and the XS/S fits perfectly. As the jacket states, it’s a type 3 floatation device which is best helpful if you are conscious or floating on your back. If you are unconscious and face down in water with this you will drown. I do not white water raft so this jacket is perfect for my level of activity. I mainly got this to follow local laws where kayaking even in calm water requires the wear of protective equipment. It’s very comfortable and easy to move in while kayaking and makes swimming out in lakes and rivers even more fun. I can just lay back and float with no effort. I also love the built in whistle and the mesh lower back patch for air flow. There are a few different adjustable straps to get the fit just right. It doesn’t take long at all for it to dry out after completely soaked, although it does get saturated it only takes a few minutes for the water to drip out. I have worn this thing for hours at a time, it’s so comfortable! I’ve transported it to camping trips strapped to the top of my car, it’s gotten muddy, been sprayed with bug spray, used on many outings and still looks brand new!
