Hyperlite Cadence Vest

No, this is a competition-style vest and is not US Coast Guard approved. It is designed specifically for riders who prioritize maximum mobility and flexibility over traditional flotation requirements.

Unlike standard life jackets, the Cadence uses segmented foam panels and horizontal flex zones to reduce bulk. This construction allows for a full range of motion, making it ideal for technical maneuvers where a traditional, thicker vest would restrict your movement.

This vest is specifically sized for a 32-36 inch chest. If your measurements fall outside this range, the vest will likely be either too restrictive or too loose, which can compromise both your comfort and the vest's performance on the water.

Yes, the simple front-zip entry is designed for quick and easy changes. It allows you to get the vest on and off efficiently without the struggle often associated with pull-over styles.
