- Chest pocket features YKK® self-locking vision teeth zipper for low-profile, easy access storage.
- A quick-release rescue harness is tack-stitched into the vest for ultimate strength and integrity.

| Profile: Low profile jackets are more compact, top-to-bottom, with thicker flotation panels; they provide great arm mobility. Flotation panels on Medium profile jackets cover more of the torso, but tend to have thinner panels. Flotation panels on High profile jackets also cover more of the torso, but have thicker panels for maximum flotation. |
