Astral Green Jacket life jacket

The Green Jacket from Astral is legendary! The Green Jacket has been setting the standard in heavy whitewater for almost a decade - both among professional paddlers and ambitious amateurs. This high-end life jacket is really sophisticated and undergoes only minimal changes during the rare model changes.

The main feature is the snug fit over the stomach. The vest is optimally adjusted by several hip straps that can be opened on one side. This means that the Green Jacket can be easily slipped over the shoulder, but it can also be pulled over the head as a slip-on vest when closed. The vertical adjustment straps under the breast pocket pull the vest down and perfect the adjustment. Adjustable shoulder straps are thus unnecessary, which gives the vest a clean look and avoids annoying strap ends.

What follows is the Unique Selling Point, the top feature…:

Speaking of the fit over the stomach: If you have gained a few extra kilos below the ribs, you may know the problem of bending far forward: the neoprene of the spray deck presses on the life jacket and this on the belly and thus blocks breathing. However, the Green Jacket with its two-part front area pushes itself together and lets you lean a little further and breathe easier.

The breast pocket that folds forward has often been copied by other manufacturers. Clarity and handling are unmatched: a lot fits in here, the all-round zipper opens the bag like a vendor's tray. Whether it's a rescue blanket, folding knife or muesli bar - the tool of choice is immediately at hand.

There is space for that under the breast pocket Astral Dyneema Throw Rope or the handy one Little Fish by ° hf.

The Green Jackets are available in all sizes in the Toros shop. Come by, slip in, feel the difference.
