Atlantic Kayak Tours has been using Kokatat Personal Flotation Devices (PFD) since Kokatat started selling them. PFDs are very personal. No one company sells the best PFD. Different people might need PFD's from different companies, but the Kokatate PDF selection is great. Wide range of options to customize their PDFs. What we like about Kokatat PFDs is that they are built to last. The quality is outstanding.

Kokatat says: The Personal Flotation Device, or life vest, is arguably one of the most important pieces of equipment when it comes to paddlesports. Comfort and safety are the primary goals we try to achieve when designing and manufacturing these all-important items. Kokatat offers a style to suit every paddler-from low-profile whitewater mode like the ORBIT to models with plenty o storage capacity for the touring enthusiast like the MsFIT and OutFIT Tour.

Kokatat is proud to be the only paddle sports manufacturer that makes 100% of our PFDs in the US Each one is carefully constructed and individually inspected before leaving the factory. All of our Life Vests are approved by the US Coast Guard and meet or exceed US Coast Guard Buoyancy requirements. Selected models are appoved by the Canadian Coast Guard.
