NRS Matik Inflatable PFD Kayak Fishing

The NRS Matik Inflatable PFD is a lightweight, low-profile horse-collar style jacket that gives you the freedom of on-demand flotation. A perfect alternative to the waist-belt PFDs, the Matik resembles a traditional lifevest with a compact, comfortable fit. This PFD is pulled over your head and there is one adjustment point on the waist belt. In the event of an unexpected swim, just pull on the red table and your vest will be pressurized by 24 grams of CO2, giving you 22.5 lbs of flotation. It’s good practice to always have an extra CO2 cartridge on hand to be ready to re-arm your PFD. Additional features include one front zippered pocket with internal tether, mouth inflation value, reflective accents for safety, and two D-ring attachment points.
