JOBE Swim Jacket Men's Unify Premium Black is made for intense days on and off the boat, with the added sophistication you expect from a premium model. The supple-feeling neoprene outer molds to your torso and moves with you during starts, short turns and jumps, while the profiled foam panels distribute buoyancy evenly. This keeps the vest light and stable without sliding, even when you get in and out frequently or sail in chop for long periods of time. The front zipper closes quickly and securely and is easy to operate with cold hands; adjustable straps let you adjust the fit tightly over a lycra or wetsuit. Strategic drainage zones drain water immediately after a dive so the vest doesn't get heavy, and the soft lining prevents chafing at shoulders and ribs. The Unify Premium is 50N certified, providing the trusted level of security for water ski, wakeboard, funtube or a brisk SUP lap.
In practice, you especially notice how comfortable and quiet the vest wears: enough support to float leisurely, enough freedom to paddle powerfully or pull through a carve. The black finish looks sober and remains neat after frequent rinsing; materials and stitching are chosen for durability, so that shape and fastenings remain reliable even after a season of intensive use. On Dutch lakes and ponds, the combination of cushioning and freedom of movement is ideal during long sessions where wind and wave action vary; on the coast, the close-fitting collar helps prevent cold splashes from spilling in. A convenient attachment for a deadman's lanyard offers extra peace of mind on the boat or watercraft, and the overall cut prevents the vest from creeping up on takeoffs. If you want premium comfort without frills, with this Unify Premium you get a vest that you simply put on and don't have to think about for the rest of the day.
