The Stohlquist eSCAPE Personal Flotation Device is for paddlers who'd rather spend their money on gas to get to the water than drop it all on a new PFD. With a solid, clean design, the eSCAPE Personal Flotation Device takes care of you while you're on the water without getting in your way. This Stohlquist PFD has a front pocket to stash a map or small camera and padded adjustable shoulder straps to make it comfortable to wear all day.

Bottom Line: Save cash and stay safe with the Stohlquist eSCAPE Personal Flotation Device.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I guess it's a fine pfd for the price but it seems to fit a little high and tends to ride up above my love handles, which isn't a good feeling. I'm not going to go through the hassle of returning it (costs 6.99), but if I could do it again I'd go try on a few jackets at a store. These are the hazards of online shopping, I reckon.

what I wanted

By:

pocket, check!
shaped for paddlers, check!
zippered front, check!

That's all i really wanted. The foam is that gooeyer kind rather than some super cheap styrofoam, so that makes it a little more comfortable. I'm sure there are a lot of other features I'm missing, but they weren't as important to me as the one's listed above. (This did not come with a whistle by the way)

A pretty good jacket

By:
August 28, 2009

I bought 2 jackets, the other one is for my wife. The material is nice and soft and quality seems good. There are lots of adjustable straps. I'd recommend this to people who are quite serious about kayaking, but who are not pros.

Great Jacket

By:
July 10, 2009

I was somewhat leary of the jackets that are not just a single size (ie this one was a M/L, but this jacket has many adjustments and fits well. Does not ride up, and the extra spacious arm sockets meant No Chaffing! I will attest to the pockets ability to not stay closed, but I would recommend this jacket to any Kayaker!

I'd go with the M/L, being a lady and all. Even though you're a 40 on the chart, the 40 would still fit a man smaller. I hope that makes sense.

Excellent PFD

Needed this for my 12 yo son 5' 95 pounds. He is outgrowing youth and too small for some adults but this is so adjustable it is perfect.
