[ My wife and I just recently purchased an inflatable kayak and were looking for a set of pfd ’s. After an extensive search, both online and in retail stores, we decided on purchasing a pair of these. We were not disappointed!! The price was right, the quality great and they look and feel nice as well. My wife is still getting used to the side entry( as opposed to a front zip or clip) but has come to appreciate them not being in front of her where they might occasionally snag on something. Overall, we are completely satisfied with all aspects of this item!!

Marla taking my life back
I have been nervous about buying a life vest because I do n't know what size I needed. I asked one of your employees he was working in the bicycle section. He ended up being the right guy to ask for help with the life vest. He used to work for the coast guard. He told me I picked the right vest for what I wanted it for and it was the right fit. I love the colors and the fit of this life vest.

Essie M
As an avid dragon boat and outrigger canoe paddler, safety is important. It came to my attention my prior PFD was too large to be effective in case of emergency. I found not one, but three different XS vests to choose from, and went with the mid- priced Onyx Airspan Breeze. It's perfect! An added bonus is the pockets are actually usable! I had expected them to be too small, but they are more than roomy enough for keys, wallet, small phone, etc., which I slip in after bagging in plastic, just to be sure they stay dry. Overall, I 'm VERY HAPPY with this purchase and highly recommend this vest, especially if you are looking for one that comes in a size that is safe and effective for those of us smaller in stature( 5' tall& 95 lbs). Well done, Onyx!

Eric801
I run a busy rental outfit. Our guests come in all shapes and sizes. The Outfitter Universal is our go to pfd. It fits pretty much all adults the big ones down to the 125 pounders. The 6 adjustable straps are long enabling us to fit the bigger guests and they cinch down to smaller chests( 125 pound). One of the great uses of the 6 adjustable straps is our guest bodies often are not the athletic types. Some are big up top, some big in the middle and some are big down lower. The 6 straps allow proper fit no matter where the space is needed. Another plus to the Outfitter Universal is it's easy to get the paddler some ventilation on hot days. The jacket rides well on the body allowing for day long comfortable paddling. We can buy any pfd and continue to use 150 of the Outfitter Universal. Hope you check them out. Oh, and, for the private boat owner that has a variety of people using their boat this is a great choice for pfd as they will fit most all of them properly meaning they are more likely to wear it. You have the confidence that if they do go for a swim they will be floating properly. Cheers, River of Golden Dreams, Whistler BC Canada

1st PFD. The Fisherman has more adjustment straps to get a snug fit and the is more comfortable than the other comparable PFDs I tried on. The rigidity of the 2 front zippered pockets is also a plus, IMO, over the other comparable PFDs because they act as trays to set gear on when making fishing setup adjustemnts. However, some of the other comparable PFDs seem to have more gear storage options/pockets than the Fisherman but comfort and adjustment was more important to me than gear storage volume. Plus, more gear in and on the PDF equals more weight which may not be a good thing in an emergency situation whilst on a lake or river.

Bought this for a beach trip for our 2y/o and she loved it. She never complained, no rough spots for high wear, and never bound up. Bright pick is highly visible and this was great.

Any infant near a pool or body of water should be in one of these once they are able to walk. It only takes a few seconds for a tragedy to happne.

[ Great looking PFD vest. Fits well and is comfortable while on the water SUP ’ ing. Seems durable and good quality. I ’ ve used the belt version of the PFD but have had several boaters not notice and yell at me to put on a life jacket while on the stand up paddle board.
