Kokatat Orbit Tour Life Jacket - 2008

The low-profile pull-over Kokatat Orbit Tour Life Jacket offers unconstrained mobility for kayaking and rafting. Burly 500D Cordura and 200D nylon oxford ensure the Orbit stands up to all the abuse you plan to put it through. Two side adjustments and shoulder adjustment ladder locks ensure a proper, comfy fit, and the internal grip pads prevent ride up when you're in the water.

Bottom Line: Say no to bulky life jackets.

Orbit tour

Tour version has pockets and reflective piping on straps, is it worth the extra money? Not sure. Overall this is good PFD. However, I found that with minimal type vest like this, that the front panel is really thick because they had to put the flotation somewhere. Not issue until you start doing reentries, the front panel with the pocket can really make things complicated. This works as my surf PFD, and no longer for touring...

This is my style of vest. With a shape like a woman, the other jackets never fit. This style gives me arm movement without the squish!

The Kodatat Orbit Tour Life Jacket is a five star for me. The fit works well for the female shape. This is one jacket that I won't want to pull off half way through the paddle.

Kokatat Orbit Tour Life Jacket: lots of arm room

By: Backcountry.com Employee
August 18, 2008

I like the Kokatat Orbit Tour Life Jacket a lot. It's not bulky. It's easy to adjust the fit. There's plenty of room to allow arm movement and shoulder rotation without restricting movement. It's a type III PFD. But I can't give it 4 stars because I find the pullover style difficult and slightly uncool.
