INFO
As Doug says time and again, "if it isn't with you, it can't save you." Carrying your essential survival gear in a vest can be less cumbersome and more convenient than stuffing your pockets with gear. Slip it on when you take your seat, take it off and drape it on the seat when you arrive; no muss, no fuss. If you have to exit the aircraft quickly in an emergency, all your essential survival gear is already with you.
This customized cotton vest includes 12 exterior pockets and 8 interior pockets. Its short length and smooth back provide added comfort while flying. The vest includes the following highest quality essential components worth betting your life on:
