Feature-rich to ensure open-water safety, the cVest PFD is specifically designed for every body that explores the rolling seas. Combining our Orbit Fit System™ with extensive attachment points and storage options, you can't beat the fit or function of this touring-ready jacket.
The innovative Orbit Fit System uses thin layers of preformed foam to create a circular wrap design that truly conforms to individual bodies. The resulting low-profile designs fit snug without overtightening to enhance comfort and range of motion. Additionally, each PFD platform was designed using a graded sizing system that accounts for differences in paddler stature and weight to deliver the optimal amount of flotation for each size range in the most compact, easy-to-wear PFD.
Additional features include:
- A mesh-back design for ventilation and comfort with high-back seats
- Front YKK® zipper entry
- Six adjustments on shoulders, side and waist
- Five-pocket design includes two side-entry pockets and two expandable front pockets, with dual zipper entry to accommodate a GPS or VHF
- Fifth sleeve pocket stows a folding knife or other small accessories
- Multiple attachment points on the front and back for lights, strobes and a knife, etc.
- 3M® reflective accents, shoulder strap keepers, and a silicone-coated inner waistband
- Recycled ripstop nylon shell and recycled nylon inner
