Float Coat
Comfortable, warm jacket and PFD combined in one
Safety and comfort combined to offer the easy fit and warmth of an everyday jacket, yet provide the safety of a life jacket. Watertight neoprene inner cuff, adjustable elastic outer cuffs and heavy-duty, full front zipper with dual storm flap help keep water and wind out. It also provides better hypothermia protection than a traditional vest style life jacket when worn in colder weather conditions. Featuring soft, flexible foam and a fleece-lined, high collar for all-day comfort, it’s also a great choice for early- and late-season boating, fishing and sailing. Raglan sleeves provide a generous range of motion. Neoprene waistline. Mesh drainage to prevent water logging. Interior pocket and D-ring attachment for small accessories. Red/Black. Imported.

Merchant response: We're sorry you find this jacket so unappealing. The Kent Float Coat is rated as a USCG Type-III floatation aid. Without certain attributes, like the bulkiness, it wouldn't be a USCG-rated float coat. Based on your comments we are more closely examining a copy for durability and ease of use.
