This inflatable vest combines functionality and style with sustainability for outdoor enthusiasts and urban leisure seekers. It uses inflatable fabric instead of air as the insulating medium, which reduces resources consumption. Insulation can be adjusted by the amount of inflation, and it is easy to operate - an adult male only needs three breaths to inflate. It provides buoyancy and safety when in an accidental fall into the water. Available in three different colors and lengths, it supports custom graphics with an digitally generated pattern in lining to meet different aesthetic needs.
