Will this jacket make you float if you fall in water?

hi Slim, according to the Stormr's website this jacket does have some positive buoyancy in the jacket. I haven't tries it out to see if this is actually true. I purchased it for winter time to keep me warm and protected from the elements while snowblowing and shoveling snow.

The bag will float when loaded with items that are less dense than water. So as long as you don't fill your bag with rocks or other heavy items it will float.

I put my iPhone in it so there was room for air around it causing it to float... But I am not sure if it would float if I had a phone that was bigger and heavier...

No. The body of the vest is mesh, the rest of the vest is the solid floatation type material. It is an excellent vest, light weight and not bulky. My husband uses it for both kayaking and dragon boating.

(sorry for taking so long to see this question) No, this model does not float.

It does not float in the water BUT GoPro does make a back for your GoPro that does float which works great!

These are not really thick enough to add floatation. I use them for splash protection and have only been in the water with them a couple of times but have not noticed any added floatation.

It will keep you afloat if kept full. But its not as sturdy as a life vest. So if youre new to open water, a life jacket would be safer. Wouldnt recommend it for kayaking on rocky rivers. Sharp rocks could puncture the inflated vest. Great for snorkeling.

Hello. I am assuming if you can put in the back cover with the floaty so that the whole case floats on the water? Yes it does!

Yes it floats. I use it in my shower for propping my foot on to shave legs.

I'd guess no. It's heavy and curved in a way that isn't for laying on the long way. I haven't checked to see if it would float.

All wetsuits give a bit of buoyancy, if they are made of neoprene. A full suit 4 mm suit floats me entirely. my legs float up so it is hard to swim. With thin shorts, your butt will ride higher in the water when you swim. But NO THE SHORTS WILL NOT FLOAT WHOLE BODY. they might help your stroke if you have a heavy butt, though!

It does NOT keep the child afloat. It is specifically designed to help the child be more buoyant and develop comfort with the water.

I think it would float if you sealed it up good, but it is top heavy so it will probably tip over and not stay upright.

Yes and no. If your in too deep of water no. If your still in shallow water yes. However mine doesn't stay inflated well

no it keeps you above water, my wife wears it in the pool and now she floats in the deep end without holding on. Its great for ones who fear water.

It will float up a bit, but its not that bad. Most of these vests have that tendency though.
