✅ ISO 12402-5 certified
Best for:
- Kayaking & touring
- SUP & calm water paddling
- Canoeing and general paddle sports
- Comfort-focused, slim PFD fit
Note: Not a high-back design (great for standard seats).
✅ Comfort & Fit
🧷 Women-specific cut
A more contoured shape for a secure feel and better comfort while paddling.
🎯 3D waist system
Holds the PFD in place and helps prevent ride-up during active use.
⚡ Quick front entry
Front zip entry + waist buckle = easy on/off, even when you’re in a rush.
🧰 Storage & Safety Features
- Zipped front pocket for essentials (phone recommended in a waterproof case).
- Reflective shoulder details to boost visibility in low light.
- YKK corrosion-free plastic zips for durable performance in wet conditions.
- ISO 12402-5 certified flotation you can trust.
🔧 Gear Tip: After your session, rinse the zip and buckle area with fresh water and let the PFD dry in the shade.
It keeps the materials looking newer for longer and helps the zips run smoothly.
