Perfect fit for hard to fit Big & Tall

Very happy with the product. At 6'5" tall, it is nice to finally have a life jacket that fits correctly.

When I first recieved the vest I tried it on and it fit great, while using it for the first time the vest kept riding up no matter how tight I made it after getting back on boat it was easy to remove but noticed that flotation material on sides and in back pockets had risen inside nylon vest material and was hard to get back down, our son used it while tubing and when he got out the flotation material inside the nylon shell was a mess like it wasn't connected at the bottom allowing it to ride up in a bunch inside the shell( sides and back ).I think it needs another strap to stop the vest from riding up.Was really excited to find a larger vest but so disappointed what a waste of money.

                There is no other Tall Man Personal Floatation Device on the market. This is a must for someone 6'2" or above. The extra length is more practicle and covers the midriff much better. Good quality and great price. Highly recommend.

                    Needed xxl for those large folks who visit our cottage. Also needed some adult smalls to fit all the kids who are not yet in the Adult med or large.
                    Both seem like excellent quality.

                      My husband is 6'5" tall and weighs 210 pounds. Will the Big and Tall size fit properly, or will it be too big around and ride up when he's in the water?
