The Palm Nevis PFD is the culmination of research from UCLan, designed by Barney Caulfield and it has been put through its paces and tested around the world by Bren Orton. At its core is the Delta Fit adjustment system. Two wings that wrap your ribs, reducing pressure on your abdomen, helping you to breathe, and increases mobility.
Set-up to go in five easy steps, with fewer buckles (including new load tested aircraft grade aluminium hardware). The Nevis has the world's first Piggyback adjustable quick release chest harness, improving upon the latest research, so that releasing your harness doesn't affect the fit of the buoyancy aid. The Nevis sets a new standard in fit and safety.
It's easy to see why Palm are an industry leader when it comes to quality equipment for the serious paddler. Known for their durable and high-end products, you can be sure that you can rely on Palm to deliver when you need it the most.

Nothing beats actually trying on this gear for true size and fit, and also the comfort factor is very important if you are going to be wearing it all day.
Weight – include all the gear you’ll be wearing too. PFD buoyancy label: A correct fit is more important than choosing the buoyancy category according to your weight. All Palm PFDs have buoyancy above the minimum floatation required for CE/ISO certification.
