Stohlquist Flo PFD

The high-back design positions the foam flotation higher up on your torso, which prevents the vest from pushing against or interfering with taller kayak seat backs. This allows you to sit comfortably against your seat without the PFD riding up or restricting your movement.

Graded Sizing means the vest is specifically scaled to fit different body types more accurately, rather than just sizing up a standard pattern. This ensures that the foam distribution and adjustment points are proportional to your size, providing a more secure and comfortable fit.

Yes, the two front-loading bellows pockets are designed to be spacious enough to hold essentials, including smaller water bottles or snacks, while remaining accessible while you are paddling.

The Stohlquist Flo is USCG and Transport Canada approved, meaning it meets rigorous safety standards for buoyancy and performance. It is designed primarily for recreational kayaking, making it a reliable choice for lakes, calm rivers, and protected coastal waters.

This vest features eight points of adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune the fit around your shoulders, sides, and waist. Start by loosening all straps, putting the vest on, and then tightening them from the bottom up to ensure it sits snugly against your body without restricting your breathing.
