MTI Adventurewear Cascade Life Jacket

I have owned many PFDs over the years. This is the only PFD I truly feel safe wearing. I made the mistake of wearing another brand and the zipper failed and I had to swim a class 4 rapid without a life jacket. This PFD has never failed me. I am on the river almost every weekend and this is the only PFD I will be wearing in the future. Not only does it look good, but it is extremely comfortable. I have a very short torso and I am large busted which makes finding a PFD very difficult. I once had to use the front attachment loop to attach my 40 pound dog so that I could portage a class five. I could barely tell he was hanging from my life jacket. I love the large pockets and especially the hand warmer! It has come in handy many times while boating in the winter months!
