Neoprene life vests
There's something for everyone in our range of
life jackets, and we make sure you'll find the perfect fit. Jobe Watersports has been manufacturing high-quality watersports equipment since 1974, and every item leaving our factory is thoroughly tested to guarantee maximum fun and safety. We offer a wide range of
adult life jackets in different shapes, sizes, colors, and levels of flotation to suit every water activity. We care about your safety, always and everywhere. All Jobe vests are certified
buoyancy aids, meaning they have a minimum buoyancy of
50 Newtons (50N). This ensures that no matter which vest you choose — from a
neoprene life vest to a
toddler life vest or a
kayak life vest — you can float safely on the water.
How to buy the right life vest
Comfort and safety come together in Jobe's unique vest range. Choosing the perfect vest depends on the watersport activity you plan to do and the level of comfort you require. To make it easy, we have categorized our
life jackets into clear comfort levels:
Why choose a neoprene life vest?
Neoprene vests are among the most comfortable for watersports. Some of their key benefits include:
- More naturally buoyant.
- Snug and comfortable fit.
- Slight stretch for extra flexibility.
- Provides warmth in the water.
- Ideal for active watersports like wakeboarding or slalom skiing.
For maximum comfort and flexibility, consider the number of split foam panels: the more panels, the more freedom of movement. A great example of this is our
Fragment Life Vest for Adults. No matter what you choose — a
neoprene vest,
nylon life vest, or
kayak buoyancy aid — all Jobe vests are ISO-certified and have a minimum of 50N buoyancy, giving you confidence and safety on the water.
