Patagonia: Highwater PFD Vest

An air-conditioned, trim-fitting PFD (personal flotation device) that doubles as a basic fishing vest, the Patagonia Highwater Vest PFD is a USCG-approved, Type III personal flotation device featuring Gaia™ foam that's lighter than conventional foam and free of CFC ozone-depleting materials, without sacrificing performance. Deft adjustment points, die-cut/hand-skived foam and an open-mesh back keep the profile slim (and cool and comfortable to wear, even in a high-backed kayak seat or float tube). The low neckline, narrow chest and short waist create large armholes for unimpeded casting.
