Personal Flotation Devices

Personal Flotation Devices

A PFD only works if you wear it, so comfort matters as much as flotation. We carry Astral and NRS life jackets for whitewater kayaking, rafting, touring, SUP, fishing and swiftwater rescue, including the Astral YTV, Greenjacket and Layla and the NRS Ninja and Zen.

How to choose:

  • Fit: snug with no ride-up when pulled at the shoulders; adjust all straps.
  • Style: low-profile vests for kayaking, high-flotation for rafting, rescue PFDs with quick-release harnesses for swiftwater work.
  • Extras: pockets for fishing and touring, and women-specific cuts like the Layla.

Our staff fits PFDs every day for guides, students and customers, and we're happy to help you find the right size and style in our Franklin, NH shop. Shop online with free shipping on orders $99+.
