Very comfortable with great adjustability!
7 months ago
Comfortable with easy adjustability. A real improvement over the style of life jacket I used as a sea kayaker back in the 1980! Can't comment on durability as I have only used it for a month but it appears to be made from high quality materials. I live in Maine where it can get cool in the fall so some days I wear this over a jacket and some days just over a shirt. I find it easy to adjust the fit for each. The only minor complaint I have is the zipper can sometimes be difficult to get started as there is no material to grasp on the left side below the zipper Might be a good idea to add a small tab to the bottom edge of the life jacket. All and all I am very satisfied with it and would purchase it again

Tight and secure

Tight and secure is how this vest fits. It is light weight and has enough pockets to keep items in. It is nice in the fit, and very visible.
