When we are speaking of high-end life jackets, it would be disrespectful not to mention the Astral GreenJacket life jacket PFD. Truth be told, this is the most expensive pick on our list, guarding its price of $270. However, when it comes to rescuing missions, there wouldn’t be a better option on the market. The vest features a pullover entry so you can put it on and remove it from your body in just a few seconds. As most high-end PFDs, this one is designed with oodles of features such as PE foam inserts, PVC-free Gaia, durable Nylon, and many more that add to the overall comfort and design of the jacket.
All in all, it is worth every penny. If you don’t have a spending limit and you are ready to invest in the real deal, this would be the perfect option for you.
