Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

Great vest, but watch sizing, I took the advice of other reviewers and bought a medium instead of my usual large. The medium was perfect, nice and tight...I am sure the large would have "rode-up" on me. Thank to all the reviewers!

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

If you are debating between two sizes go with the smaller one. It must fit snugly, if it is at all loose it will ride up around your neck, and make you miserable! I went with a medium, I am a male 6'0"--175lbs.--34"waist--42"chest. I tried a friend's large, and it felt fine on land, but once in the water it was riding up around my face. When in doubt, go with the smaller size, you won't be sorry!

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

This vest was easy to put on and simple to inflate. Once on, it was
not bulky and did not get it the way. My husband, who bought the same vest,
did not like that it rode up at times but found that a minor glitch in an otherwise very good product.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

Went I unwrapped it , I went wow! I could immediately see that a lot of emphasis have been placed in designing the Cuiser. Quality construction and materials and even the inflator pipe looks and feels completely different from what is offered in the market.
Yes, its abit expensive, but I have complete faith that this works as good as it looks!

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

I have owned this vest for over a decade; finally traded in my size SM for a MD (sigh)...but I wouldn't HAVE anything else for snorkeling. Don't think it's appropriate for diving, but for snorkeling, it's ideal. The fit is perfect, and I love the fact that you can inflate as much or as little as you like while you're in the water, with just a quick turn of your head. Love the net pocket for keys (or fish food!), too. The zipper is sturdy and never jams; the length is perfect, too. Never have any trouble with it riding up around the neck, either...it pretty much stays put if adjusted properly. LOVE it!

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

I am a strong swimmer but this vest makes me feel more comfortable when in deep water away from the boat or shore. It is not bulky and does not interfere with swimming. The neoprene adds a bit of warmth and also makes the vest more comfortable than the ones without neoprene.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

I liked the vest for my girlfriend but despite a fairly good fit it climbed up on her if she stopped & treaded water & it was fully inflated. We may sew in a crotch strap with quick release. She looks great in it in photos above & below water.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

We just returned from snorkeling in the Caribbean
and I wore the vest whenever I snorkled. I am now 71 years old and don't as much confidence about my snorkeling ability as I used to. The vest really helped me out and I was much more confident when using it. The only slight problem was that it tended to ride up somewhat when moving about.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

This was a gift for my wife (non-swimmer and non-diver) an avid snorkeler, who has struggled with the waist and crotch belted snorkel vest models. It fit her perfect, but the elastic pull of the fabric makes starting the zipper tricky. The inflation tube is easy to use. Will learn more about buoyancy and trim when we get to warm water in February.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

I had second thoughts about buying this product because of the cost. But, once I used it all that was gone. This vest was comfortable and easy to use. It isn't bulky and doesn't ride up like the inexpensive vest that you see every where. You won't regret this purchase even if you only use it once a year like I do.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

I also own a "horseshoe" type vest and I didn't like how it would ride up around my chin after being in the water for a while, even if I tightened the straps. This one rides up a little, but not much. The pocket is handy for keeping small items. It also looks better.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

The ony change I would make on this product would be to install a refective patch on the back or some floresent green, maybe a panel of green on the back. Snorkeling is face down and the back part is black with a logo only...

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Cruiser Snorkeling Vest, Black/Yellow:

We are getting older, and we thought it would be good to start wearing a vest in case we get into some type of trouble while snorkeling. You can leave the vest deflated until you need it. We are able to fit our rolled up safety sausage signaling devices in the mesh pouch.
