Stohlquist Descent Type-V Strong Swimmer Safety Vest

The ultimate rescue PFD. A comfortable, low-profile vest that incorporates all the features necessary for running the biggest rapids, or roughest seas.

Feel & Fit

  • Ergonomic Wrapture Shaped Torso
    • The Wrapture torso provides the most secure and comfortable fit without the tight & restrictive feeling of conventional flat-foam construction. The ergonomic WRAPTURE shaped torso utilizes reverse articulated foam & convex interior seams to contour to the natural shape of the body and provide a close, low profile fit. 
  • Cross-Chest Cinch for Zero Ride-Up
    • The innovative Cross-Chest Cinch harness, found only on Stohlquist PFDs, offers the most unique fit of any PFD, by keeping the vest down & in place, to eliminate ride-up. The "cinch" prevents and eliminates chafing on your chin and underarms caused by annoying vest ride-up.
  • Sturdy, Safe Design
    • Featuring Gripp-Loc non-slip interior surface; suspended, self-tensioning, armored shoulder straps; and Nail-Cloth textured shoulders for portaging with added shoulder protection.

Utility

  • Large Zippered Front Pocket and Beverage Holder
    • Easy-access and secure storage for all of your needed essentials.
  • Type V PFD
    • With sea level buoyancy of 17 lbs
