Adjustable Size Unisex PFD Life Vests - Value Pack

Born in the Water: Stohlquist's Passion for Innovation, Performance, and Excellence

Stohlquist, a company driven by a lifetime of hands-on paddling and entrepreneurial spirit, has created the Fit PFD - a high mobility vest designed for paddling, general boating, and personal watercraft use. The sculpted front and back foam panels of the Fit PFD offer a more appropriate fit for paddlesports, while still providing versatility for other boating activities.

In early 2004, Stohlquist joined forces with Aqua Lung to capitalize on the synergies in the personal flotation business, both above and below the water. This partnership has resulted in a product line that caters to the needs of water enthusiasts, from the calm early morning waters to the thundering whitewater and the gleaming surf on island beaches.

Stohlquist's Graded Sizing: Crafting the Perfect Fit

Stohlquist has developed a chassis that varies in dimensions to match the size of the paddler, ensuring the best fit and the lowest footprint possible for a wide range of body types. Each individual size has been fine-tuned, with the foam footprint and thicknesses sculpted to provide a better fitting and more comfortable PFD for people of all sizes.

This approach allows Stohlquist to fit younger, smaller-framed paddlers up to larger adults in the same style vest, while offering the same amount of mobility and a low-profile fit across the entire size range. In contrast, other manufacturers simply change the length of their straps without adjusting the dimensions of the flotation foam, resulting in a bulky and potentially dangerous fit for smaller paddlers.

Feel the Movement, Feel the Innovation

The Fit PFD boasts a high mobility, non-restrictive cut, with a higher placement of the upper buckle to help reduce ride-up. The thinner back panel also helps to reduce seat back interference, ensuring a comfortable and unencumbered experience for the wearer.

Stohlquist's commitment to innovation is evident in the design of the Fit PFD. All foam corners are rounded and sculpted, in contrast to many 3-buckle PFDs. Additionally, the box-stitched webbing used is more durable than the bar-tac stitching found in other economy PFDs.

Safety First, Exploration Flourishes

Safety is the top priority for Stohlquist, as they cater to open water explorers. The Fit PFD is Coast Guard approved, ensuring that paddlers over 90 pounds can enjoy paddling, general boating, and personal watercraft use with confidence in their safety.

The Fit PFD also comes in a convenient zippered storage bag, with four Adult Universal PFD life vests, weighing only 0.7 pounds and available in an easily adjustable universal unisex size.

Born in the Water, Refined through Experience

Stohlquist's passion for the water is evident in every aspect of the Fit PFD. Drawing on over 40 years of product innovation and refinement, the company has created a line of WaterWare that provides its customers with the best possible experience, whether they are early morning adventurers, whitewater enthusiasts, or beachgoers.
