How Do I Choose the Right Size Life Jacket/PFD?Updated 2 months ago

 1. Choose the Right Size

• Check Jetpilot’s size chart based on your chest measurement and weight.

• A snug fit is key too loose and it won’t work as intended. 

 2. Loosen All Straps

• Before putting it on, loosen all buckles and straps for easy adjustment.

 3. Put It On and Zip/Buckle Up

• Zip up the front and secure all buckles firmly.

• Make sure it's sitting evenly on your torso.

 4. Tighten Straps Evenly

• Start from the bottom straps and tighten upwards.

• It should feel snug but not restrict your breathing or movement.

5. Perform the “Lift Test”

• Have someone gently lift the PFD at the shoulders.

• If it rides up past your chin or ears, it’s too loose re-tighten or try a smaller size.
