I wear this vest for water aerobics. I bought it because a couple of times, when the water is cold, I found I was shivering in my core. The vest works great. It keeps my core warm, and I'm not shivering any longer. Two minor observations. First, the vest has a tendency to ride up in the water. I push it down, but it rides back up. Second, I'm a guy, and I bought the Large size, which the website said fitted most men. But the zipper pull is left-handed, like a woman's zipper. It bummed me out at first, but I've gotten used to working it. Still, if you're marketing a product for men, you should use a right-handed zipper pull.

I am a woman with a size Medium bust, Large waist, and XL hip measurement. I wish women had these items and more womens size and shapes. Fortunately the XL fit me. I want it for pool swimming, since I get so cold in'heated' pools that I avoid swimming with my kids. I have not used this yet, but it is bound to be better than nothing. The back side of the arm holes seem tight. If they give me a rub-rash I will trim the fabric. It looks like it will trim with out needing hemming.

It was way too small. XL said it fits most men and since I can wear men's medium to large, I thought it would fit. In reality, it was probably closer to size 8 womens.

I bought this because when I do laps, I am always cold getting into the water. This makes my ribs warmer, doesn't bind, and is lightweight. It does the job!

I take a water class for my arthritis/lupus/fibromyalgia at the local Y. Because we are building a new building we had to close the lap pool and share the other pool, bringing the temperature of the other pool down from 88 to 84, which is barely tolerable. The vest that I bought makes it possible for me to stay warm enough to do the exercise I need. Appears to be well made. I like the vest rather than a jacket because it gives me freedom of movement and does not add resistance. NOTE: you will definitely need a size larger. I am a 12 and ordered the large size, which fits fine. It should be snug. The medium would not even zip up the front.

I teach lessons in this and use it to play in the ocean, my last one was by Evo and was like a belly shirt, i love how long this one is and the cut around the neck and shoulders (all better than the evo). I'm not very hippy so i'm not a huge fan of the flare at the bottom, but its snug the rest of the way and works great!

The Swim Vest is lightweight and comfortable and offers a degree of buoyancy. It satisfied my needs in a pool exercise class and swimming in the ocean.
