The NRS Vector PFD is a top-tier, Type V rescue vest that builds on the Zen and Ninja legacy to offer whitewater paddlers and rescue professionals the ultimate in comfort, mobility, and safety. Designed with enhanced rescue features, the Vector instills confidence to push limits on the water.
The innovative Orbit Fit System layers precision-cut closed-cell foam for a flexible, pre-curved fit that contours effortlessly to your body. Graded Sizing ensures the right amount of flotation for every body type, resulting in a better fit and increased comfort.
Wrap-around foam panels with AirMesh lining, along with wide, padded straps, maximize both protection and comfort for long river trips and hike-ins. The 1.5” quick-release rescue belt with an aluminum ring is carefully positioned to minimize snag risks, while continuous webbing forms an internal harness for live-bait scenarios and secure grip points at the shoulder straps.
Key storage features include a compartmentalized, zippered drop-down clamshell pocket for organized essentials, an additional dual-entry zippered pocket for quick access to a flip line or cap, and two quick-release carabiner attachment points for cowtail rescue systems. With attachment points for safety essentials like whistles, knives, and lights, as well as SOLAS reflective accents, this PFD enhances visibility and readiness in low-light conditions.
Additional features include a hand-warmer pocket with 4-way stretch polyester lining that doubles as quick storage, strap garages, and a low-snag lash tab. The breathable lower back AirMesh lining manages moisture, while the sustainable recycled ripstop nylon construction and PVC-free Ethafoam shims highlight our commitment to eco-friendly materials.
The pullover design includes aluminum buckle adjustments at the shoulders, sides, and waist, along with a silicone-coated waistband for a secure fit during active maneuvers. The Vector PFD redefines what a rescue vest can be, delivering optimal safety and comfort for those dedicated to the water.
