great for canoeing August 26, 2010 Bike Mike (roaming) I bought two of these vests for canoeing this summer, and have used them several times already. They fit very well, are easy to adjust, an
d look good to boot. One important note is that they are not intended for an unconscious wearer, as the person would probably float face down. This is very clearly stated on the tag as per USCG Safety standards.
An excellent product for my purpose, canoeing on a calm lake.
Wicked comfy for the money!! August 16, 2010 Torrie (Westhampton, MA, US) I got this for my husband who has a very broad chest & this fit him great!! We would recommend this to any one!!! Although he has not been in the water with it yet to say it held him up in the water....Haha I would hope it would!!
Nice Vest July 28, 2010 Donna R. Kitchen (Ellsworth, ME) I needed two vest for my boat that would fit young, 8-12 yr. olds. These vests were used for swimming and they held up nicely. Well worth the cost.
good for some; too long for me May 23, 2010 Joot 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
My boyfriend and I both bought one of these. He is 6'1" and got the L/XL; I am 5'4" and got the SM/M. It fit fine and was very comfortable on me while standing in the store (actually has boob room compared to some very flat competitor vests, even though it is unisex).
However, when I sat in the kayak, I discovered the jacket was too long. So it pushed up about 5 inches above each shoulder and I struggled with the front of the vest hitting my throat. I will be returning this jacket, but boyfriend was fine and will be keeping his. Not recommended if you have a short upper body and will be sitting down. If you'll be standing on your boat or have a long upper body, this vest is good.
Good but.. April 13, 2010 Andrey (Boston, MA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I use two of these in an inflatable canoe (Sevylor Colorado) and let me say that I haven't tested the floating abilities of this jacket.
I am somewhat muscular but wear M-sized shirts for a snug fit (no, not skin-tight, but I don't like it when clothes are too loose). This PFD fits me fine.
What I don't like about it is that it rides up with use - both for me and for my smaller companions who probably need M- or S-sized PFDs. This PFD ends up squeezing at my neck and I have to continuously pull it down. Maybe I should have gotten a PFD which has mesh shoulder straps. Other than that, the price is really good and I can't imagine why some of the other PFDs cost $90+.
