User questions & answers

Question:	Looks as though the flotation goes well down the paddler's back. True? Is it thin enough not to be an annoyance with a spray skirt
Answer:	This vest is designed for paddlers and works great with sprayskirts. We use it in our whitewater instruction programs and have no complaints.
Question:	I don’t know how to swim. I just learned how to snorkeling. Can I use this as a beginner in ocean for snorkeling
Answer:	This is designed with most of the flotation on the front to help keep your face up and out of the water and really cut as a kayaking pfd. I’d imagine there’s a better option as a swimming aid.
Question:	Is this a class
Answer:	No but it is a type 3
Question:	Is this something that can be used for a kid who is a non swimmer
Answer:	I would say yes. Make sure it fits properly.

User questions & answers

Question:	is this a latex free life jacket
Answer:	I don't know for sure. You would have to call the company. Because the life jacket is coast guard approved. I would hope they would have thought of that for people who are allergic. Good Luck. I hope it works out.
Question:	How do you keep the jacket from ridding up? My son is 43lbs and we have the jacket up to 50lbs. The jacket rides up to around his neck causes redness
Answer:	Do you have the straps that go around his chest nice and tight? He should also have the strap that goes between his legs as well. If it keeps riding up the jacket may be to big for him. Good Luck and I hope this helped.

Answer:	No it does not come with a strap between legs...
Question:	Is the youth size open on the sides

Question:	Are the youth and child vests open or closed side? The description says they’re open, but also says closed in the comments. Thanks

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this life jacket rated uscg type 1, 2 or
Answer:	Totally child! Would not fit any adult.
Question:	can this be used for 35 lbs kid
Answer:	Yes, both my daughter and son use this life jacket while kyacking and swimming in a lake. It fits them well and does not seem to rub and allows them to move their arms freely.
Question:	Adult or Child
Answer:	You are correct in commenting about misuse of the tern "Life Jacket" which this product definitely is NOT. This is also correctly describe as "Swimming Vest" and provide a non-swimmer flotation assistance while the child can learns to tread water and keep their own face out. Another common type has a large, wide collar which can with assistance float a young child on their back. As a swimming instructor and water survival instructor for the military with over 40 years experience I have seen many cases where guardians did not wish to get wet expecting the PFD to provide supervision. In any case a responsible person must be within arm’s reach of a non-swimmer. If any kind of survival is expected a Coast Guard Type one(1) or two (2) is the correct choice and any accidental fall into cold water under 80 degrees can be dangerous. Also as a foot note overall this product appears to be a reasonably well designed. I particularly like the two crotch straps preventing the jacket from riding up over the child face a potentially dangerous situation.
Question:	can this be used for beach swimming
Answer:	It’s adjustable or I have just put it on the side when not in use. I don’t believe it’s removable.

User questions & answers

Question:	My twins weigh about 45 pounds what size should we get
Answer:	Yep! My oldest son is between 56-58 lbs and this holds him up really well. I thought he'd sink a bit compared to my 38 lb son, but they seem to keep him up just as well.
Question:	My daughter is two and half year old and 25 lbs
Answer:	From what I've researched, the deluxe has a different material on it. After the ease of use of the basic puddle jumper, I fail to see any point in getting the deluxe. My son used his nearly every day for 10 days and the material never bothered him.
Question:	Is there a zipper on the front
Answer:	I don't think skeet shooting has anything to do with toddler life jackets...does it?
Question:	Will this fit a 6 yrs old
Answer:	This specific type of "water wings" only come in one size, I put it on my daughter for the first time around 18-months old (about 27 pounds, 33 inches). It's meant for toddlers that can walk well, not infants. It's very adjustable, so she should be able to wear it until she's 4 or 5. Hope that helps.

User questions & answers

Question:

How old are bobbin

Answer:

Hello, Your question has been forward to me for response. Depending on when the actual rearm kit was manufactured, it may show two versions of dates: 1) Original Version: Shows the manufacture date: Example - MAR16 18HR This is showing the company manufacture date of March 16, 2018. Bobbins for recreational showing only the manufacture date will expire in three years from the manufacture date. A bobbin with this date would expire in March of 2018 2) New Version: Shows the production date and actual expiration date: Example - 030520 EXD 0325 This particular bobbin would show it was manufactured on March 5, 2020 and has an expiration date of March, 2025. (Note, the newer bobbins now feature a five year expiration date, vs the three year as seen with older versions. The consumer/end user should inspect the bobbin and check the expiration date before their next outing to confirm it is in good condition, showing no signs of wear and has not expired. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

User questions & answers

Question:	What's the difference of type 1, 2 or type 3 for infants
Answer:	I’ve used it scuba diving in Indonesia, Fiji, and Cozumel and was comfortable; dives Included some thermoclines at 80+ feet (computer said min temp was 72 degrees) but spent probably less than 5-10 minutes at that depth and noticed a chill. I should note that I am not slim!
Question:	Why is the buckle for infants so close to their chin
Answer:	Suggest Size 6 ( Small size )
Question:	my 10 month old is in 18 month clothes.. i need the infant type II vest .. i see mixed reviews... will it hold him? is the neck small? is he to big
Answer:	I’m 5’6”, 170 lbs., by the size chart, I should be a small, maybe a medium. I ordered a large based on other reviews and it fits tight. Order at least two sizes larger than the size chart suggests. Hope this helps.
