The NRS<\/a> Vector PFD builds off the legacy of the Zen and the popularity of the Ninja to evolve a fully featured, lightweight rescue vest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NRS Vector PFD<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have always found NRS PFDs to be very well designed, with a great fit and lots of useful features and given the DNA of the Vector I suspect that this will also be the case with this PFD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Wrap-around foam panels with AirMesh lining and wide, padded straps increase protection and comfort on the river and extended hike-ins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The 4 cm quick-release rescue belt with an aluminum attachment ring is strategically placed to reduce snag risks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Continuous, interconnected webbing creates an internal harness for maximum security in live bait scenarios and when grabbing users by shoulder straps.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Compartmentalized, zippered, drop-down, clamshell pocket stows and organizes essential on-person gear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • An additional dual-entry, zippered pocket holds a flip line or skull cap for fast retrieval.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Features two easy-release carabiner attachment points for cowtail rescue systems and attachment points for safety essentials such as whistle, knife, lights or strobe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 3M\u00ae reflective accents to increase visibility in low-light conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Hand warmer pocket features 4-way stretch double knit polyester lining that’s soft against the skin; pocket doubles as quick storage for webbing or gloves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Strap garages and a deliberately placed lash tab reduce snag points.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The Orbit Fit System layers multiple pieces of lightweight closed-cell foam cut to precise specifications to create a unique, flexible, pre-curved shape that effortlessly conforms to your body.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Graded Sizing takes into account the appropriate amount of flotation needed for individual body types resulting in a better-fitting, more comfortable life jacket for all.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Sustainable construction combines a recycled ripstop nylon shell with a recycled nylon inner that protects the fully recycled Ethafoam shims.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • AirMesh lining on the lower back adds ventilation and helps manage moisture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Side entry, with aluminum buckle adjustments on shoulders, side and waist to secure the life jacket and customize fit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Silicone-coated inner waistband helps hold the PFD in place when swimming.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    One of the main features is the RECCO reflector. RECCO is\u00a0a two-part search and rescue technology used globally by professional rescue teams to locate lost people or avalanche victims. It features a passive transponder (reflector) worn on clothing, boots, or gear that bounces a signal back to a detector operated by rescuers.\u00a0In the Vectors case the front RECCO reflector sits above the large clamshell pocket. The reflector requires no maintenance and no batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The rear reflector sits at the top of the main body. I think this is a pretty good idea. Are NRS the first to put this on a PFD? Let me know in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The pocket includes a D-Ring, Daisy Chain tape and two sectioned off pockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Vector is also available in black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
