The U.S. Coast Guard-approved Full Throttle Onyx CO2 automatic flotation vest provides a wide range of motion and movement with minimal bulk. The slim vest inflates manually by pulling a simple T-cord attachment, or automatically when immersed in water. Its slender design keeps you cool in warm weather, and a soft neoprene neckline means you can comfortably wear it all day on the boat or at your favorite fishing spot. Durable ripstop nylon material resists tears and punctures while holding up to the rigors of outdoor use, and reflective piping offers greater visibility.

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I bought several Sospenders (5) 2 35lbs (male) and 3 of these 22lbs (female) in order to be more comfortable on our sailing adventures. The women crew found them to be very comfortable and I like the cross webbing (shoulder to middle lower back) better then on the more expensive Sospenders single center web. The girls didn't even mind the "BassPro" logo on it as they are comfortable and will do the job and the price (less than $100) is excellent.
They definitely give you more free movement than the conventional bulky ski-type vest PFD's. There might be complaints by women with a larger bosom as these short vests are worn very high on the chest.
We would buy one again but will never pay more than $130 each unless I need the "D" ring life line hook-up
