Onyx Sport USCG Approved Life Jacket

I did a lot of research trying to find a comfortable life jacket to kayak in. Issues w others ranged from not comfortable, no pocket, very expensive, not available in larger sizes, and more....This was at the bottom end of the cost price range but had the following going for it: two large pockets, soft light material w plenty of room for arms that need to paddle, will fit a 3x guy like me (6'3" 300lbs) and yet the small fit my fiancee at 110lbs.I thought about giving only 4 stars because though wide enough to fit around my big belly, it as very short coming just to my belly button and looking very odd while I walk around, HOWEVER, I have to say, SHORT is what you WANT when you are sitting. So it actually may have been part of the intention design.

Good quality, easy to adjust and good price. As it says USCG approved, I assumed this PFD is supposed to save ones' live. However, the instructions warn that you need to push your head back, so as not to have your face in the water. And warns that it is not suitable for someone who's unconscious. As I'm a good swimmer and only plan to use it, or at least have it on board, while kayaking or canoeing, it suits my needs. But for anyone who could panic in water, may have risks of seizures or plans to sail or do anything else that might lead to losing his/her consciousness; look for another one that will automatically get your face out of the water.

Purchased this for my 7 year old nephew and he keeps it on all day.. Says its comfortable enough

Wayy off size chart, too big side.Tl no crnter strap to keep vest from moving vertically life most children's vests do have.Other than that it is what it is. And they aren't actually certified

One review made reference to a fishy smell. That review made me a bit hesitant but no smell was noticed the vest have a nice feeling, fit well and the pockets are a nice extra. Good quality for the cost.

Son loves it

Fits my average sized 4 year old grandson fine. He thinks it looks cool and doesn't mind wearing it for an extended time.

The nice thing about this vest is does not look like a typical boating vest. This will be used by my Dad as he trims weeds around his ponds; the fear is always that he could slip into the pond and have problems getting back up the steep banks. As it looks like a hunting vest he has no problem wearing it and is very happy we bought it for him.

Does not fit that well but it keeps you a float

Its just a normal sized life jacket nothing special 20 dollars more for longer straps

Perfect size for both me and my husband. I like the color, as well as it's condition once it was delivered. It was delivered within a short time of my order.

Seem to be good for the money

Haven't actually tried them yet . However , seems to fit a bit on the sm side. Pocket is handy and seems to be made well.
