Q:
Would you say a woman with a larger chest fell comfortable in this jacket?Asked on 6/9/2013 by evo from thermop wyoming2 answers
A:
Evo, the Greenjacket's inner panel fits below the breast area and the outer panel is adjustable, so you should be able to get a good fit. With life jackets it's always best to try them on first. Check our Dealer Locator - http://www.nrsweb.com/services/dealerlocator.asp?tn=281 - to see if a store near you has the jacket. If that's not possible, we have a great returns policy.Answered on 6/10/2013 by Clyde from NRSVERIFIED BUYER
A:
I can't speak from experience, but by loosening the two pocket flap straps
all the way, the straps that go around the body should be able to fit under
the chest and snugged first. Then pull the pocket straps until the chest
is snug but not painful.Answered on 6/10/2013 by Anonymous

Q:
Hi I'm interested to see a photo of the "five inner compartments for organizing rescue gear."
Not really sure how thats going to look/work.
Currently wearing the 1st ed green jacket, which i've loved the main big pocket for fitting pretty much everything.Asked on 5/27/2013 by Jdizzle from Melbourne OZ2 answers

A:
Its still a big pocket, but the "compartments" are stitched in sleeves as
well as a zipped mesh compartment much like what you'd find in a backpack.
See attached pic.

Q:
I am between sizes (about a 37-38 inch chest). Which size do you recommend? I am 5'7", female, and 160lbs.Asked on 4/15/2013 by Sonz from Nashville, TN3 answers
VERIFIED BUYER
A:
The vest is definitely true to size and has ample adjustments to since down
and extra looseness.Answered on 4/16/2013 by AnonymousA:
Sonz, if we don't have one of our dealers (http://www.nrsweb.com/services/dealerlocator.asp?tn=281) in your area, go with the M/L. The larger size will allow you to add layers and bulkier paddling tops.Answered on 4/15/2013 by Clyde from NRSVERIFIED BUYER
A:
Best thing to do would be to try on both sizes and see what fits you more comfortably. If that's not an option, I'd go for the bigger one.

Q:
Are these available yet? And how quickly will the site be updated when they are available?Asked on 2/25/2013 by T-Money from Oregon1 answer
A:
Both colors, in all three sizes are in stock. When we receive new stock of any item, it's usually online within 24 hours.
Here's a tip: When a product has a "*Not In Stock, Backorderable" link in the Add To Cart space, click on it and there's a link where you can be notified when it's back in stock.Answered on 2/25/2013 by Clyde from NRS

Q:
Is this a limited edition greenjacket?
I ask because it obviously does not look like the normal greenjacket, but I also looked at all of the limited edition greenjackets and none of them look like this one. So my question is, where is this coming from? I do not see astral selling it, or any history of them making it or anything.Asked on 2/24/2013 by Burke from Atlanta1 answer
A:
Astral works hard to keep improving and innovating with their life jackets. This is the latest version of the popular Greenjacket. The main improvement is the large "clamshell" pocket (which first appeared in the Sea Wolf jacket), with its five inner compartments for organizing rescue gear.Answered on 2/25/2013 by Clyde from NRS
