Fit Tips

If one of your body measurements is in between two sizes, order the smaller size for a tighter fit or the larger size for a looser fit. If your body measurements for hips and waist correspond to two different suggested sizes, order the one indicated by your hip measurement.

How To Measure

WAIST: Measure around the narrowest part (typically where your body bends side to side), keeping the tape horizontal.
HIPS: Measure around the widest part of your hips, keeping the tape horizontal.
CHEST: Measure the fullest area of your chest. Stand up straight and breath normally.

The staff were great.

Vaikobi and the staff are fantastic. They were extremely helpful with my questions and concerns. My PFD is great. Exactly what I wanted for paddling and is very comfortable.

VX Race PFD - Awesome!!!

Awesome life jacket that doesn’t ride up. Doesn’t have anything that would catch ropes or get in the way. Very impressed, best life jacket I’ve had!

I’ve bought a series of life jacked over the years and this one suits me best, because when you fall out of your boat you don’t scratch the carbon fibre when trying to pull yourself back in. It’s low profile which means there’s just less bulk. You can easily swim with it on as well! Great paddling jacket!
