Obviously, when in a kayak or canoe, you need to paddle. That`s why freedom of movement is essential in water sport.
The main requirements for a personal flotation device are:
Also, there are a lot of additional features you can get. Take a look at our TOP-20 women`s life jackets.
Stohlquist’s Misty Women’s Personal Flotation Device is a highly adjustable PFD built to work with any touring or sit-on-top boat. The adjustable shoulders let the Misty sit higher, for more comfort with higher seat backs and compatibility with spray skirts; the shoulders can also be lowered for more coverage and comfort if you’re paddling a sit-on-top boat. Its lightweight PE foam is particularly thin in back to avoid interfering with seats, and the Misty features open sides, mesh shoulders, and internal mesh panels for ventilation when you’re paddling under the hot sun. A cross-chest cinch harness ensures a snug fit and makes sure that your sunglasses and beverage will stay put when you stick them in the specially designed pockets.
NRS designed its Women’s Type III Zoya Personal Flotation Device specifically for women to give you an ideal fit while you wrestle whitewater. Soft PlushFit foam forms to your body while four straps on the side, two at the shoulder, and two at the waist dial in an exact fit. NRS made this PFD out of extremely durable ripstop with a urethane coating to help keep it dry, and mesh covers the lower back for ventilation and to accommodate high-back seats. NRS also added fleecy, quick-drying VaporLoft inside the pockets to warm up your hands on cold days, the lash tab holds your knife, and there’s a strobe-holder loop on the back.
You’ve gained some paddling confidence but your decades-old PFD makes moving painful. Ditch the ancient, army-green vest in favor of the Astral Buoyancy Linda Personal Flotation Device. Large arm holes leave ample room to brandish your paddle from any angle, and the back rises high enough to save your scapulae from high-backed kayak seats. This buoyant baby is specifically engineered to keep your XX silhouette comfortable whether you’re SUP-ing ’round the pond or taking your recreational ‘yak out for an all-day paddle n’ picnic.
This fun-loving USCG-certified PFD provides 16 pounds of float and prefers touring lake caves in a canoe or a leisurely afternoon paddle in a ‘yak (look elsewhere for a PFD for whitewater). Rugged 200D nylon won’t shirk from wayward paddles or touchy-feely tree limbs. The inner mesh lining isn’t meek when it comes to keeping you cool. A skinny strip of mesh runs midway down the center of your back to give paddle-produced perspiration an obvious escape route while letting fresh air swirl around your shoulder blades.
The women-specific design takes articulated foam panels and carefully contours them around your torso for maximum comfort without sacrificing safety. Polypro webbing at the shoulders and sides lets you customize the fit with a few simple tugs. Shaped for a lady but buoyant enough for a man, the adjustable straps let the Linda fit a wide range of body types easily, safely, and comfortably. Two large pleated pockets easily hold your camera, lip balm, and a baggie of snacks (which you don’t have to share).
The Stohlquist Women’s Escape Personal Flotation Device combines clean, functional design with a women’s specific cut to make your day on the water more comfortable and secure. The chest area of the Women’s Escape is carved out to offer support and reduce the often too-tight feeling of unisex PFDs. Ideal for flat-water paddling and rafting alike, this Stohlquist PFD includes a zippered chest pocket for your sunscreen or glasses and padded adjustable shoulder straps to ensure all-day comfort.
With its anatomically sculpted foam and six panel construction, the NRS Women’s Siren Type 3 PFD provides both safety and top-shelf comfort while you’re on the water. Six points of adjustment let you dial in the perfect fit for your individual frame, while raised foam panels along the spine help keep cool air circulating through the vest on those hot summer days. A soft, stretch fabric at the chest and arm openings only ups the level of comfort, and with a knife lash tab, a zippered pocket, and padded shoulder straps, you’ll hardly notice you’re wearing it until its time to either make camp, or take out.

Equipped with a women-specific fit, the Astral Women’s ABBA Personal Flotation Device shines above the rest with a unique construction that’s strong, dependable, and comfortable. Specifically, the Abba gains its buoyancy from an organically grown and sustainably harvested plant fiber called kapok that conforms naturally to your body. Plus, this PFD is fashioned with two fleece-lined hand warmers, two large zippered hand pockets, one zippered chest pocket, folding knife pocket, and a quick-access knife tab. The self-locking Vislon zipper and buckle entry make the vest easy to don and super secure when you’re in the water.
Designed specifically for fishing from a kayak, the Leviathan Personal Flotation Device comes packed with all the bells and whistles you need to stay focused on the fish. For peace of mind on the water the Leviathan boasts a 16lb buoyancy rating that makes it easy for you to keep your head above water in the event of a spill. On days when you don’t take a tumble, the leviathan has your back with super durable nylon in high wear areas paired with quick drying Araprene mesh on the back and shoulders that work well with high back seats on boats. To keep your flys, bait, and tools nearby at all times this PFD boasts 14 total pockets that let you organize your goods however you want.
Fully-featured and ready for just about any type of water-based adventure, the NRS Women’s Sayan Type III Personal Floatation Device has a seven-panel design and an anatomically-sculpted chest to effortlessly wrap female paddlers with comfort and protection. Burly 400-denier ripstop nylon comprises this PFD’s construction to reliably protect your jacket from snags and tears throughout the season, while six adjustment points and the front zippered closure ensure a customizable fit that’s easy to slip on and off at a moment’s notice. NRS equipped the Sayan with Cool Flow System (CFS) panels in the back to maximize ventilation through long summer days on the water without adding any excess bulk, and 3M reflective accents help boost visibility in low-light conditions.
Whether you are hitting the ocean for a paddle that will last a couple hours or an entire weekend, grab the Kokatat Neptune Life Vest for on the go organization and reliable comfort. This high performance vest boasts impressive comfort for unrestricted paddling thanks to the ergonomic Gaia PVC-free foam panels, front and center webbing adjustments, and a high tenacity rip-stop nylon shell. To keep you prepared the Neptune offers 5 total pockets, one of which is designed specifically for a VHF radio, while another perfectly fits a folding knife. The combination of organization and peace of mind provided by the vest will have you venturing out on the water more than ever before.
The NRS Women’s Shenook Personal Flotation Device is a type III PFD optimized for fishing. Its PlushFit foam rests high above your back to pair well with kayak seats and rafts, and the lower back is completely mesh for enhanced ventilation in warm weather. Six buckles wrap around the back to provide an adjustable fit, and the zippered front closure ensures the fit is secure. It has a rod holder, knife lash tabs, strobe attachments, and additional pockets for fishing tools.
Wouldn’t it be nice to comfortably paddle in a life vest that truly complements your physique? Rather than repackage its men’s PFD with some pastel colors and call it a women’s model, Stohlquist gave the Women’s Cruiser Personal Flotation Device a smaller cut, a shortened torso, supportive inner cups, and the new Wrapture shaped torso to ensure ergonomic comfort for female paddlers. Half flotation and half airy mesh on the back provide cool, low-profile comfort in today’s rec-tour boats, and the padded mesh shoulders and lower-back waistband are easy on the skin when worn with a swimsuit.
