Description

An air-conditioned, trim-fitting PFD (personal flotation device) that doubles as a basic fishing vest, the Patagonia Highwater Vest PFD is a USCG-approved, Type III personal flotation device featuring Gaia™ foam that's lighter than conventional foam and free of CFC ozone-depleting materials, without sacrificing performance. Deft adjustment points, die-cut/hand-skived foam and an open-mesh back keep the profile slim (and cool and comfortable to wear, even in a high-backed kayak seat or float tube). The low neckline, narrow chest and short waist create large armholes for unimpeded casting.

  • Four buckles provide easy on/off and adjustment

Highwater PFD Vest 4 5 1 1
High quality but bulky I recently purchased and returned the Patagonia Highwater vest. To be fair, the vest was of a very high quality. I love the mesh back, the front pockets, the shoulder freedom for paddling/casting, and the buckle front. The vest breathes very well and seems extremely functional. My one complaint, which was a dealbreaker, was the thickness of the padding. To allow a wide range of arm motions, padding seems to have been concentrated in the inner chest and neck areas, rather than spreading it out over the shoulders and outer chest. This resulted in a vest that was too bulky for my personal taste. May 26, 2009
