I have one made by Stormy Seas that I like very much. It looks like a nylon vest with soft (lightweight) fleece lining and has 2 zip pockets. You wouldnt know it was an inflatable unless you pull down on the breakaway chest flap to activate it. Its a nice garment that is comfortable so I ACTUALLY WEAR IT. My girlfriend has an SOS suspenders which maybe cooler but I think they look bulky and silly personally. Both will float you nicely, neither has an auto inflator so they dont misfire. My Stormy Seas wasn't CG approved because it isn't passively activated, so I keep other PFD's in the locker to be legal. Hopefully I don't conk my head on the way out of the boat. I wear the vest surfcasting and canoeing all the time- esp on flats wading where you can get caught on he wrong side of a "guzzle". Hope this helps, Jim
