    We bought them for our grandchildren to use for tubing, boating, swimming and fishing. We felt they were very safe having them on. The vest's were used daily for two weeks on a lake side vacation and dried very fast as well as clean up and stored neatly. [...] we would buy from Overton's again.

    Great mid-range vest

    Great multi use vest. Kids have some difficulty attaching and tightening straps on their own.

                        Our teenage grandchildren didn't like any of the jackets we owned and always complained about the buckles/straps, etc. They all love this jacket and we will be ordering several more.
