Great FitThese are a great fit for both my wife and myself.
People that are complaining about the fit are missing what these are designed for. they are RECREATIONAL LIFE JACKETS. They ARE MADE to be shorter so when you are sitting in a boat they don't ride up and hit you in the face and neck. They ARE CUT LOWER at the neck line, and around your arms so you have more movement. They ARE STIFFER because the foam used IS DENSE TO MEET COAST GUARD APPROVAL. For sizing if you have a 50 chest, I would recommend the 2X instead of the XL, you will be happier.
People that want a FULL LENGTH, FULL SIZED life jacket that is constricting, DO NOT purchase this one, this is NOT a full length life jacket, it is a RECREATIONAL LIFE JACKET, my wife and I use them in our canoe and we love them. If you want a life jacket that you will love, that is not expensive that offers full movement, buy this one, you will not be disappointed.

uselessIf you're in need of a life vest just to make your boat legal by all means buy this one. This life vest is the largest one made. I'm 6ft 5in tall. This vest comes just below my shoulder blades in back and not even half way down my chest. Why on earth would you manufacture a life vest for a 52 inch chest and have it not even go half way down?

Gets the job donePicked up a life jacket for a fishing tournament I was in and it fit fine when I needed to wear it during the long runs. I was also able to fish with it on when it got choppy on the water. Not constricting at all.

Great ValueThe cut of the jacket is the perfect length for sitting in a boat. If the cut were any longer the jacket would ride up into the neck area when sitting. The jacket is well designed and a great value at $20
What is the product length? A review mentioned them fitting "short".
Asked by: Donuts24
Per the Manufacturer - "The measurement from the shoulder seam to bottom of the vest will be 20” – 20.5”. If this is on a taller person it may seem short but it will perform the way it is supposed to."

Are they D.O.T. approved for Canada.
If these jackets are not Department of Transport approved they can not be used by Canadians no matter how safe they are! The fine is $250. I got off with a warning with excellent ski vests from Overton's. It is not illegal to sell them in Canada and it is legal for American tourists to use them. Don't get caught with non DOT jackets if you are Canadian!! It is not about safety!!
Asked by: Rawb
I am sorry but we are only able to tell you these vest are USCG Approved/Type III only. The regulation change in Canada. Therefore, you would need to look for a GCC Approved Vest. You might check directly with our Retail Stores in Canada. Thanks
