Providing lightweight comfort that wont obstruct your mobility during a race, Zhiks Racing life jacket offers the confidence and functionality racers need. With a close fitting cut and soft polyethylene foam, this life jacket keeps you comfortable all day. Large arm holes and the high waist design allow for superior freedom of movement so you can pull off any maneuver. By designing the Racing life jacket with no extra or unnecessary straps and buckles, Zhik ensures you will not get hung up due to stray straps. With an easy side zip entry and one bottom buckle to secure your life jacket, just set it and forget it. The back of this PFD wont ride up due to a rubber strip on the inside.
