Sizing Guide:

Men's & Unisex's PFDs

• Chest: Measure horizontally under the armpits around the fullest part of your chest & shoulder blades.
• Weight: Include all the gear you’ll be wearing too.
• PFD buoyancy label: A correct fit is more important than choosing the buoyancy category according to your weight. All Palm PFDs have buoyancy above the minimum floatation required for CE/ISO certification. PFD weight ranges are printed inside Palm PFDs on the ISO label.

PFD Fit Guide:

Three simple steps to putting on your PFD for a good
Fit:

1. Loosen all the straps & buckles.
2. Put the PFD on (over your head or by the front zip) & fasten any buckles. Do not tighten chest harness yet (if fitted).
3. Tighten all straps, starting from the waist & working upwards to the shoulder straps. If your PFD has a chest harness, fasten & tighten this last. Finish by sitting down & checking shoulder straps.
