Cal-June Adult Type I Life Jacket with Reflective Tape, USCG Approved (601A-T)

The Cal-June Adult Type I Life Jacket (601A-T) is a U.S. Coast Guard approved Type I personal flotation device built for offshore and open-water use where maximum flotation and visibility matter most. It is constructed with 100% closed cell foam, giving it dependable, long-lasting buoyancy that does not rely on inflation or CO2 cartridges. Retro-reflective tape is applied to the jacket to improve visibility in low-light and emergency situations, helping rescuers spot a wearer more easily on the water.

Hardware is stainless steel throughout for corrosion resistance in a marine environment. The jacket uses a slide-through belt design that stays threaded and ready, so it can be put on quickly without fumbling with buckles in an emergency. Cal-June designed each side of the jacket identically, making it fully reversible and reducing the chance of putting it on incorrectly under stress. This straightforward, symmetrical design is part of why Cal-June life jackets cause less confusion than many other Type I vests.

Measuring 24 inches by 12 inches by 3 inches, the Adult Type I Life Jacket is sized for adult wearers and is well suited for commercial vessels, offshore boats, and any application where a USCG Type I rating is required or preferred over lower-rated flotation devices.
