WAKESHOP VERDICT
Our take.
The Bodywarmer Kids is a clever alternative to the traditional children's buoyancy aid. It looks and feels more like casual clothing, which can make it much easier for children to wear for extended periods, while still providing ISO-certified buoyancy. The lightweight nylon shell, front YKK zip, drainage system and useful safety D-ring make it practical on the water as well as comfortable around it. Just remember that it is a buoyancy aid rather than a higher-flotation self-righting lifejacket.
✓
BEST FOR
Children who dislike conventional bulky buoyancy aids, family boating, SUP use, recreational watersports and general use around the water where a comfortable ISO-certified buoyancy aid is appropriate.
×
NOT IDEAL FOR
Children who require a higher-category lifejacket designed for situations where self-righting or additional flotation is required, or performance wakeboarders wanting the flexibility and low-profile construction of a dedicated impact or competition vest.
WHY WE STOCK IT
Why it earns a place at WakeShop.
The Bodywarmer Kids offers something genuinely different from a conventional children's buoyancy aid. Its casual bodywarmer-style fit, lightweight nylon construction and front zip make it comfortable and easy to wear, while ISO-certified buoyancy, water drainage and a safety D-ring retain the important watersports features. It is particularly useful for children who dislike bulky or restrictive traditional vests.
