5.0 out of 5 stars. Comfortable for women, too, breathableVerified Buyer Reviewed by Outdoors family from Sisters, OR on Wednesday, October 19, 2011Used by women for kayaking, worked great even though a 'men's' vest. Did not ride up. Plenty of adjustability to share within a family/group, very simple to adjust. As size 36 chest and athletic build, I bought the size that starts at 36 and goes up from there (which I think is a small). Was worried it might be too large but it was not. I only paddle gentle waters and lakes and was tired of the tall basic life jackets you get at a local sporting goods store. Very pleased at performance and price. Was comfortable in temperature in 70's (low humidity) with constant paddling.
