The Onyx Nylon General Purpose Life Jacket is a U.S. Coast Guard Approved Type II personal flotation device (PFD) built for young paddlers, swimmers, and boat passengers weighing 50–90 pounds. Whether your kid is heading out on a family fishing trip, learning to water ski, or simply enjoying time around the dock, this youth life jacket combines reliable flotation with practical features that keep active children comfortable and secure on the water.
Built from tough 200 denier nylon and 150 denier poly-twill, the Onyx stands up to sun, chlorine, and the wear that comes with regular use. The jacket's lightweight foam core delivers buoyancy without the bulk that discourages kids from wearing it—a major win when safety and compliance matter. Adjustable chest and waist belts let you dial in a snug, custom fit as your child grows, while the leg strap keeps the jacket in place during active water play or unexpected tumbles.
Thoughtful details like the pop-up pillow and grab strap make a real difference in recovery scenarios. The pillow provides extra head support and buoyancy right where it counts, and the grab strap gives you a quick, secure handhold if you need to assist or retrieve your child from the water. This is honest, no-frills flotation gear: USCG-approved, comfortable enough that kids will actually wear it, and tough enough to last through multiple seasons of lake days, river trips, and boat outings.
