Elite Vest | Child Boys

Great life vest for our toddler. We love Hyperlite products. Always the best colors, design and quality. Their life vests are very durable.

My boys both swim, and swim well. We’ve had them in lessons since they were infants. But with an upcoming trip to the Dominican Republic I was worried. The resort had a lazy river, which can be intimidating if you can’t touch the bottom, and we were going to be in the ocean a ton. I thought that buying them good lifejackets that they could just wear while they played around the water would be a smart way to counter some of the danger I could not yet evaluate. What I was not prepared for was how much those lifejackets allowed us all to relax and have more fun. It allowed me to let the boys play a little harder, it allowed me to read a book while they played, it allowed me to know that no matter what, their heads would be above water and that would give us a much wider margin to solve any problems they might encounter. These Hyperlite jackets delivered!! Not only were they comfortable enough to wear an entire day, they also allowed me to easily see my kids in the water and out. Both of my boys (6&8) are between 50 & 55 lbs, so we were at the top end of the recommended weight. But when comparing to other jackets for larger kids, these felt more snug and the addition of the between the legs strap was a big win. The construction is top-notch with the zippers even working well in sand! Impressive build quality and soft-tough fabrics that allow all-day play. Best of all, they kept my kids faces above water, I know I’ve said that ready, but that was what I needed. Comfort and function!! Overall, these are and were amazing. I’m so thankful to have bought them and am very pleased with the experience. Do yourself a favor and buy some peace of mind for yourself and your kids, you will enjoy everything more as a result.

Great life vest! Comfortable and easy to use. Fit as expected based on weight. My youngest does not know how to swim by himself yet so he lives in a life vest during the summer pool months. I much prefer the zip up kind as the fit is better than the kind without the zipper. Helps him to stay afloat and to enjoy the pool. Helps me to feel better because I know as long as he’s got the vest on he’s not going to accidentally get hurt.

great fit, little better movement than some other youth jacket competitors. You pay little extra for these but the comfort has saved some battles.

First let me say I am a fan of hyperlite. This product was no exception. Bought for the grandson. Product is light weight warm much more comfortable then most. Tilts the baby back at a 45 degree angle when submerged as it should. Design is great bright colors make for easy spotting should you find yourself in a rescue situation. My grandson doesn’t swim yet but has plenty on maneuverability when in the jacket. I ordered based on weight and sizing fits perfect.

Really nice life jacket. Ran a little big in my opinion, my son just weighed in at 50 lbs when I ordered, so expected that, plus it should fit for years to come. Looks like it will last for years, quality seems excellent. Really nice colors & design. Lightweight enough and dried quickly. My son never complained about wearing it so I assume it’s comfortable. Very happy with my purchase, will be sticking with this brand in the future.

Good fit and good quality! We used it for the beach- I’m thankful for the little bit of color- it was hard to find a big enough life jacket, that’s affordable, safe and colorful. I just hate that they make life jackets so dark- wish it was all bright for water safety. Other than that it’s a great jacket and did its job! 4 stars just got the color issue.

Purchased this for our 20 month old for when we are on the boat. It’s comfortable, doesn’t cut into his neck, and I love that it comes in a bright color. Parents, remember to purchase a color other than blue or green. If your child would ever need to be spotted in the water, a bright color like orange or red can be spotted instead of bleeding into the water. We tested it in the pool and worked magically. It does make the child go straight to his back. It will not allow the child to float upright due to the design.
