Size Chart Men's Vests

Please use these chart to help find the right size life vest before you buy. Be aware that these are only a guide and each model of jacket will fit slightly differently. This data is collected direct from the brands and unfortunately Skiforce cannot be held responsible for specific vests not meeting the measurements on these charts. If you buy a vest and it doesn't fit we are happy to exchange you for another size. See our return and exchange policy here.

Most measurements are based on chest measurements, but can also have measurements for shoulders and waist. Vests also have a weight factor, though this should not be your major indicator, as these weight measurements can often lead to having a vest that fits to big. To measure your Chest wrap a measuring tape around your upper body, under your armpits and over the fullest part of your chest and shoulder blades and note where it overlaps. To measure your Waist bend to one side and find the natural crease of your waistline, wrap a measuring tape around this section and note where it overlaps. Please also take into consideration that vests do stretch up to 5-10% once wet, what may feel tight initially can in most cases be the correct fit once on the water. Good luck!
