Confident floating and steady progression, with eight removable foam floats
Eight individual foam floats slot into sewn pockets around the jacket and can be removed one by one to reduce buoyancy gradually as swimming technique develops.
Gradual float removal supports skill progression, helping children practise strokes and balance without sudden changes in support.
Secure fit and fuss-free fastening, with adjustable safety strap and YKK zip
An adjustable, removable safety strap works with a YKK zip and Velcro tab to hold the jacket snugly, while soft lycra binding reduces rubbing around edges.
A reliably snug fit keeps children upright in the water and prevents the jacket from riding up during lessons or play.
Comfort for lessons and holidays, with premium neoprene and UV protection
Premium neoprene construction keeps the jacket lightweight yet durable, and the fabric offers 50+ UV protection to shield delicate skin during outdoor use.
Children are more likely to keep the jacket on for longer sessions, and the material stands up to repeated use in pools and at the beach.
