Frequently Asked Questions:
Is the Solitude II comfortable with high‑back kayak seats?
Yes. Its high‑back construction is designed to nest with tall kayak seats to minimize ride‑up and pressure points.
What activities is this men's foam life jacket best for?
It is perfect for recreation and touring. It’s a versatile men’s foam life jacket for kayaking, canoeing, and paddle sports.
Will the fleece‑lined pockets still help if they get splashed?
They’re great for warming hands between strokes, but they aren’t waterproof storage.
What chest size should I pick if I’m between ranges?
Choose the size that includes your measurement and fine‑tune with the adjustments for a snug, non‑restrictive fit.
Can I store small gear on the vest?
Yes. Two zippered pockets secure keys, snacks, or a compact multitool, and the D‑ring plus cord loop offer additional attachment points.
