Mustang life jackets

We purchased the Mustang lifejackets because we believe they offer the best combination of quality, safety and comfort in a very important piece of safety gear. And we’re not alone! The US Navy, US Air Force, NASA, the Canadian Armed Forces, and the Coast Guards of the US and New Zealand all depend on Mustang to save lives without sacrificing everyday comfort. Mustang survival gear has earned two of the world’s most prestigious certifications for quality design and manufacturing: ISO 9001 and AQAP 1, the highest level awarded by NATO.

Mustang’s automatically inflatable AirForce Jacket with integrated harness is comfortable both inflated and uninflated. Its 35 pounds of buoyancy can right a facedown person to a faceup position within seconds. Universally sized for adults with chests 30”-52” (76-132cm). USCG-approved Type V PFD
