When we are speaking of high-end life jackets, the Astral GreenJacket life jacket PFD is top dog for paddle sports.
This is the most expensive pick on our list, hovering above $300. It represents the best from Astral and sets the bar for the rest of the industry.
The vest features a pullover entry so you can put it on and remove it from your body in just a few seconds. The GreenJacket is designed with many 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.
Going into any Class III rapids, this may be the best PFD for you. Maybe even your guide will be wearing this one.
