Excellent quality! I love the pockets and the the multiple places to tuck the straps away. The back pocket comfortably fits my 1.5litre hydration pouch - so much more convenient than having a water bottle rolling around in the kayak, or precariously tucked under the bungee straps on the foredeck. Unfortunately I chose an XL when I should have gone for the smaller size. I am 5'4" and short in the body so that the PFD is a little too long for me and tends to ride up when I'm sitting in the boat. However, it works well enough and the pluses outweigh this.

Great product, comfortable to wear, doesn't interfere with paddling or movement and looks good.

Very comfortable to wear. I think I'm a large size but took advice to get XL which is fine and certainly not too big. Quite bulky compared to my very old buoyancy aid but it does have more secure fastenings, more buoyancy, made from stronger fabric and has pockets

Great value, quality BA. I'm normally a M/L but the XL fitted me well.

So far I've only fallen in the local canal a few times off my new SUP and it's worked fine. A bit bulkier than the very old one it's replaced but it has higher bouncy rating and pockets

lockdown means it's not got wet yet but it's top quality, fits well and looks great. I took advice to size up and worried it would be too big but it's spot on with loads of adjustment room
