Astral Green Jacket PFD

Few pieces of paddling gear have earned a reputation like the Astral GreenJacket, and it continues to deserve it.

This is the whitewater PFD that river guides and expedition paddlers have trusted for years in the most demanding conditions on the planet. FoamTectonics architecture splits the front panel into two independent layers, letting the outer panel move freely with your upper body while the inner panel stays locked in place around your torso. The result is a freedom of movement that most rescue vests simply can't match. Open sides keep the profile low and unobtrusive, while Flotection armour plating protects your ribs and vitals from impact on rocky rapids and hydraulics.

The 500 denier Cordura nylon shell is built for serious use, and the PVC-free Gaia and PE foam flotation reflects Astral's commitment to more environmentally responsible materials. The new EVA moulded central pocket is a meaningful update, providing organised, accessible storage for essential gear, while the space behind the front panel accommodates a small throw bag. Heavy duty acetal and stainless steel hardware hold everything together in conditions where lesser gear fails.

With 16.5 lbs of buoyancy and USCG Type V approval, the GreenJacket covers whitewater rescue, sea kayaking, and SUP at the highest level. For Canadian paddlers running serious rivers or coastal routes, this remains the benchmark.
