Description
The X Back Molle Personal Floatation Device from SWITLIK
This personal floatation device provides the most safety, versatility and comfort of any vest we know of on the market.
The X-Back Full “Molle” personal floatation device from SWITLIK has been designed to provide pilots, aircrews and passengers with the absolute best personal floatation device available. The X-Back design allows this vest to uniquely contour your shoulders which lowers the profile of the vest and increases the comfort while increasing your range of motion while wearing the vest.
The weight of the vest and its accessories is moved away from the back of your neck and evenly distributed across your shoulders reducing fatigue. The breathable fabric and ergonomic fit keep you comfortable throughout your flights.
Vest is cobalt blue and black, and upon inflation the bright yellow inflation chambers provide maximum visibility for search and rescue crews.
Switlik has earned its core business as predominant leader in providing personal floatation devices for military around the world, search and rescue crews, water bombing crews and commercial carriers, and other applications such as commercial shipping and oil field work.
SPA sells this vest complete with two optional “Molle” Extra Large Pockets.
