I did a lot of research to see which brands were recommended for ladies with a larger chest. I would highly recommend this one. It's as comfy as a paddling vest can get and adjustable so you can get the fit you need. A nice bonus is the storage pockets. Good movement and safety without being too bulky or constricting at the shoulders. If you have a bigger chest, torso, shoulders or just don't like a lot of constriction around your shoulders (like some of the paddling vests can have) then this is the one you need.

I’m 5’8” with small but athletic build, and the Small-Medium suits me perfectly — hits just at my natural waist. The back is flat, not bulky, so I’m able to sit back or stay seated upright without discomfort. I love the mesh on the back for breathability. The front has some bulk to it, but it’s not functionally impairing. The pockets were a big seller for me — spacious enough to hold essentials. The zipper is kinda tricky because it can catch the fabric, but it’s still quick to get on. Overall, it ticks all the boxes.

I did some checking online and with friends about PFD for women with a large bust and short torso. This one and another by Astral kept coming up. I’m glad I took a chance and purchased this.It’s comfortable, lots of range of motion for kayaking, my boobs aren’t squished, and it sits where it should (versus up under my chin due to boobs and short torso.) No issues with the zipper (there is a rubber pull-tab on one side to hold onto when zipping. The pockets are ample, and it’s comfortable.

Really good PFD and I would highly recommend. I needed something for a beginners sculling class and this turned out to be too bulky, but I would highly recommend this for other uses, boating, etc.

Came quickly. Fit perfectly. Nice color. Only wish it had a little more storage-as in larger pocket for phone. I have a iphone 14

I like the flat back and it works for my short torso. Does not over whelm me.

Fits well and comfortable.

I was looking for something comfortable for different water sports. This would be perfect for kayaking as the back has no floatation. But there is too much flotation in the front to be comfortable water skiing, or playing in the water.
