  • Perfect fit
Color: Water Blue Size: S/M
Haven’t tried it in the water yet but the fact that it’s breathable helps with the air flow a lot with the summer heat in Florida. Not as bulky as my previous which frees more movement while paddling.

  • Good hot weather jacket
Color: Water Blue Size: Medium-Large
A couple of years ago I'd bought one of these Astral EV-Eight life jackets for my wife, since we kayak in some pretty hot weather. She really liked it so, I just bought one for myself and I'm looking forward to using it this summer.

  • Comfy for a lady
Color: Fire Orange Size: S/M
This fits comfortably, is nice & cool with the vents, and perfect in a kayak! Unlike a neoprene one that I used previously, it stays out of the way of the seat and your arms while paddling. Also has room for a bust, unlike most others. I float tested it and bobbed like a cork!

  • LOVE THIS PFD - Most comfortable EVER
Color: Fire Orange Size: Large-X-Large
Typically would have my previous PFD readily available in my Kayak due to how awkward it felt. THIS ONE IS SO COMFORTABLE that I wear it all the time without hesitation. Very comfortable for us girls up front :)

  • Too wide
Color: Soil Tan Size: S/M
Color and style are great. Chest cuts for my wife's shape made it comfy. Returned it as the front panel is just way too wide for my wife's slender frame. Adjustment straps don't synch in the right places to make it fitted enough.

  • Comfort and breathable
Color: Water Blue Size: S/M
Use the sizing guide- It fits perfectly, and is so comfortable. Definitely worth the price - excellent quality. Would definitely buy again (but I doubt I’ll ever need to its that good).

  • Finally
Color: Water Blue Size: Medium-Large
A PFD that doesn't ride up.

  • Poor fit, awkward adjustability
Color: Fire Orange Size: Large-X-Large
I'm a male, 5-10", 190 pounds, so I ordered the large / extra large, as the sizing range is limited. The side mounted adjusting straps are awkward to tighten / loosen - I found that tightening the vest before putting it on made it difficult to close the zipper. I had to contort to tighten the side straps - pull enough and the side buckles will loosen. The shoulder straps were at the shortest I could adjust them to and they were still too large. Putting the vest on and trying my paddle I felt my arm chafing on the side buckle. The two small pockets are for show; they're awkwardly placed, and really tight. The worst was the side panels - they could not conform to my body. Getting out of the vest was a challenge as my arm kept getting snagged on the side straps. I could easily see this vest riding up on me in water. I'm returning this vest and am purchasing an O'Brien instead. The actual construction was good, but if one can't adjust it to fit snugly then of what use is it? I think having adjustment straps at the front makes far more sense. ... show more
