Re-released and updated with new features such as hidden aerodynamic side buckle covers, the Aero Pro PFD brings the same close, comfortable fit that watersports athletes trust, now with more storage, smarter attachment points, and a sleeker profile that stays out of your way at speed.

  • Larger rear pocket: for more storage capability.  

Key Features 

  • Stretch neoprene construction: Firm, close fit for comfort and performance at speed.
