Great Feel!
Just got the vest before our trip to the Colorado. Love the side entry and very comfortable. Does have a tendency when you first put it on, to slide a bit to one side. But when you get it on and adjust it, fits and feels great. Especially for us athletic builds, ample room around the shoulder area if you ride stand up for freedom. Sitting on my wifes GTX, very comfy in the seated position as well. For those that worry it's not certified by the USCG, (I was told it's going through the certification process) I float tested it a few times, and float like any other PFD of this kind. Everyone noticed the great looks, at an even better price. jettribe performs with unmatched Style and Gusto. Get one....

Fantastic Vests!!
Just received two of these vests in the mail. The fit and finish if the materials used are top notch. I had a hard time finding jackets in Canada that were PWC specific and these definitely fit the bill. Nice fit and should feel even better with a little break in. Highly recommended vests for anyone looking for a jacket that looks/performs better than the vest your buddy is wearing in his canoe!!!

Excellent
The quality of the vest is the best I have seen. Fit is nice with plenty of room for adjustments and I like the option to add more safety items.
I found that the vest was a little "flat" after being stored and shipped laying flat, so I used a strap to alter the vest into a little more contoured shape and made it fit my body much more comfortable. I keep it stored with the strap around the body of the vest and it fits perfectly with great comfort. -
Awesome!!!!
This vest is awesome, It defiantly has the protection you need if you race or tend to ride a little aggressive. The fit and finish seems top notch!!!
I was recommended by a friend, and I will pass this vest along to others.
