Onyx Infant/Children's Life Jacket, USCG Type II, Blue, Fits Infants/Children Under 50 lbs

The Onyx Infant/Children's Life Jacket is a U.S. Coast Guard approved Type II life jacket built for young riders under 50 lbs. The outer shell is constructed of 200 Denier nylon paired with 150 Denier poly-twill, giving the vest long-lasting, durable wear that stands up to regular time on the water. Inside, lightweight flotation foam keeps the vest low-bulk and comfortable while still providing dependable buoyancy for a child or infant.

Fit and safety details are purpose-built for small wearers: a leg strap keeps the jacket from riding up in the water, a pop-up pillow helps keep the wearer's head positioned above the surface, and a grab strap gives an adult a quick, secure handhold for recovery. Adjustable belts and a chest strap let the vest be sized to fit securely as a child grows or for different infant sizes, rather than relying on a single fixed fit. The vest is finished in blue.

This is a general-purpose vest intended for infants and children under 50 lbs, and it carries U.S. Coast Guard Type II approval, meaning it is designed to turn most unconscious wearers face-up in the water.
