XGEAR Adult USCG Life Jacket Water Sports Life Vest Review

As a big man I've struggled to find a life jacket off the shelf in our local stores. One of the hazards of on-line shopping has always been uncertainty about size. When the first jacket ordered was too small I returned it for a larger size and was delighted at how seamless the process was. I downloaded a code onto my phone and took the product, in its original box, to the UPS store. They printed the label and at no cost to me I was able to return it for the correct size. Perfect fit for what…

Material and contruction is very well made. I advise if you usually wear XL get the XXL. Runs a little small. But you can adjust straps. Fits really Well I am 5'5' Female curvey 200 lbs.

Very nice product. Not too bulky for water sports. Slightly too bulky for my intended use (backup flotation device in a small plane)

Bought it for jet skiing. Other 3xl were a bit snug but this 4xl fit perfectly. Hard to find for large people. Great quality, 4 buckles and good arm mobility for jet skiing. Easily supports my weight in the water. Good buy

I honestly just needed to buy one to go kayaking. For the price it isn't bad at all, but you will need to go up in size than what you're generally used to for clothing. Kind of bulky but plenty of room in the arms to maneuver.

I bought one for my wife and one for myself. Very good vests. Comfortable, sized right and piece of mind. I purchased this item in a 3XL and it wouldn’t fit a small baby. It’s ridiculous!!!

Very comfortable and well made material. Use for our family vacations, snorkeling and swimming in the open ocean That's my review.

I bought this because the other life vests I had just didn't work for my very tall sons. The minute they tried this one on, I could tell they were relieved! Finally they don't have a vest that feels too tight and too short.

I thought I had ordered an XL. The sizing chart led me to believe that there was a choice in sizing. Apparently, all they offer is 3XL’s. It will be returned tomorrow.

Product was fine for quality, timely delivery however the fit was odd. Seemed short compared to others, it was highly adjustable but did not fit as expected to stay on, tight and not fall off when hitting the water. Additionally I had returned the product for refund but somehow ebay shows to not have received it back and are now charging my account back for it. It was returned as required via the UPS / FedEx / ebay drop off and labeling directions. Therefore any issue after that is the problem…

As soon as I removed it from the packing I could feel the quality. I did have to end up returning it as it felt a little too snug. I am a 2x 3x but I felt it ran a little small. If you are in doubt about sizing go the next size up.

Only reason I’m not giving this a 5 star I wish the pockets was bigger to fit my phone. I have a iPhone XS with a lifeproof case. Doesn’t fit and if something Happened while I’m out in the water or stuck it would be hard to call someone if I don’t have my phone on me, instead in a bag or boat/kayak. Etc.

I do a lot of boating since 2 of my sons and my grandson all have boats and live near. I decided tp but an extra water jacket. Love the jacket. It was 2 sizes too large but after adjusting the straps it works fine.

Had the chance to test it out on a swift part of the Boise river and it felt secure and was easy to keep my head above water. Saved my life possibly. Whistle included is a nice extra and is loud.

I looked at a few XL life vests for our teenager. This one by far was the best looking and fit/held him up perfectly. We got the blue one and he loves it. The clips on front appear to be of high quality (we've only used it twice). Product came super fast.
