Kent’s Type III First Responder life jacket provides flexibility and reduced weight for comfortable constant wear for you or your crew.
Featuring soft and lightweight foam, the First Responder life jacket keeps you comfortable and mobile on or around the water. Kent strategically segmented the foam panels inside this jacket and added large armholes for increased mobility. Contoured foam at the lower back shapes to your body and offers lumbar support. Adjustable neoprene shoulder straps help keep your life jacket in place while providing a comfortable and secure fit.
Additional features add needed functionality for first responders and rescue crews. Two large, zippered, front cargo pockets offer extra storage and two fleece-lined pockets warm your hands in cold conditions. The heavy-duty front zipper and two 1” buckles lock this life jacket in place while the hidden encircling belts reduce snags. Finally, SOLAS grade reflective material on the shoulders and back as well as the bright orange coloring increase visibility in dim and stormy conditions.
