Find the Right Fit — We’ve Got You Covered

Getting the perfect fit for your life jacket is key to staying safe and comfortable on the water. Here’s everything you need to know about sizing — and what to do if your new life jacket doesn’t fit just right.

Why size matters and how to choose

Getting the right fit isn’t just about comfort — it’s about safety. A well-fitted life jacket will keep you secure in the water without restricting movement. Here’s what to look for when choosing the right size:

• Check the size chart. Every brand offers different shapes and sizes in their range. We're continuing to improve the information we have available for each life jacket, so be sure to check sizing & fit guides on each product page before deciding. If there's some information missing or you're still not sure, feel free to reach out to our team of experts.
• You want it snug, but not too tight. Your life jacket should fit snugly around your chest and torso without feeling restrictive. You want to be able to breath comfortably - if you can't take a deep breath, it's too tight. On the other hand if the vest can easily slide up and down your body it's too loose.
• Consider your activity. Wakeboarding and waterskiing require a more secure fit to handle high-impact movement, while jet skiing and casual boating can allow for a little looser fit.
• Try it on before hitting the water. When you receive your life jacket, and before you hit the water ensure you give it a try. Fasten all the buckles and zips, then test your range of motion. If you feel restricted or like the vest might slide up and down too much — consider exchanging for a different size.

A good fit means better buoyancy, greater comfort, and more confidence in the water. Don’t settle for ‘close enough’ — take the time to find the perfect size!
