Selection and Safety Note
Select the PFD through the employer's hazard assessment, applicable regulations, water conditions, and rescue plan. Confirm that the sewn-in label identifies the approval, use, chest size, and weight range required for the wearer and task. Inspect the vest before each use and wear it fully fastened.
A Type III flotation aid may not turn an unconscious wearer face-up. This vest is not fall-arrest equipment, and its flotation approval does not establish compatibility with a fall-protection harness or any attached accessory.

Use the wearer's chest measurement and the size range printed on the manufacturer label. Choose the corresponding size-specific product option before adding the vest to the cart.
Does the vest have storage pockets?
Yes. The Mesh Deluxe design includes two cargo pockets for small work items. Do not overload the pockets or attach equipment that interferes with flotation, fit, closure, or rescue access.
