Loooove It!

The PFDiva fits perfectly - snug & comfortable. I'm a D cup, broad-shouldered and this vest doesn't squash me flat. It doesn't ride up or shift around and the racer-back design allows plenty of range-of-motion. It's easy to adjust, and as mentioned, the straps are plenty long - a good thing because it allows for bulkier clothing in cooler weather. The little neoprene tube for the zipper tab to slip into at the top of the vest makes a perfect place to slide sunglasses. I kinda like the Mango color - it's bright and cheerful and easily spotted. And the little butterfly "tattoo" designs on the back are kinda fun.

I got this PFD earlier this summer. I've spent over 30 days in it so far with just as many before September and the thing is awesome. It's comfortable and fits well. Plus, people always giggle when I tell them it's a PFDiva with Adjust-a-bust. Dweeb mango is highly visible.

A couple of small cons- I had to trim about 6 inches off of the shoulder straps because they are huge (and I have wide shoulders). The expandable front pocket (with stuff in it) pushes out the plastic knife attachment which then makes it more likely to catch on stuff when doing overboard work and rescues.

Thank you MTI - fits but doesn't squash a woman's body. Body foam is softer than most and conforms to torso. REALLY love racer back - awesome for continuous paddling. Mesh pocket for at-the-ready things like noseplugs and whistle. Secure inner pocket for car key & cash. Doesn't have a dozen pocket that bulk up the Michelin Man vests. I favor Cordura nylon - tough, repels grime. Very nice for rolls, allows for flexibility. Got mine in the ICE (light blue/blue) color option as the mango/gray option is dweeb.

Negative Reviews:

Not my favorite fit

Rating:**
All straps were stiff and hard to adjust. The waste adjustment was small, I didn't have to tighten it at all and I'm on the small side of medium (8), which is good because even if I tried I couldn't pull the straps very easily.

don't order at last minute

I think this product will fit some people great. It has adjustable breast cups but I am a A cup and could barely fit into the jacket without any extra padding which is for a full C cup. I also have broad shoulders so that could be a major factor. If you want this jacket see if you can try it on at REI or elsewhere first. Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't. Like most paddlers we have broad shoulders so look out. But thanks to REI they are working with me to get a jacket that fits great and makes me happy!!! So don't buy elsewhere or you'll be stuck with it. :(
