Adventure Tips
Ensure Proper Vest Fit
Adjust chest and leg straps snugly but comfortably to keep the vest secure without restricting movement.
Check Vest Approval
Confirm that life vests meet US Coast Guard safety standards for reliable flotation and durability.
Supervise Kids Near Water
Always keep a close watch on children wearing life vests, as they aid safety but don’t replace active supervision.
Rinse and Dry After Use
Salt and chlorine can degrade materials, so rinse vests with fresh water and dry them thoroughly between rentals.
