What is the most comfortable, least restrictive auto/manual inflatable vest for the ole fat guy to wear all day?

Mustang HIT is a good one. Hydrostatic Technology.

I like the Onyx A/M 24 Deluxe. The Mustang HIT is nice too. I think the Onyx Deluxe is more comfortable. It's a personal preference. Go try them on. Whatever you do, get one and WEAR it!

I've used this vest for about 6 years. I chose it because it is was the most comfortable vest I could find and because it inflates when submerged in 4" or more of water (hydrostatic pressure). Doesn't inflate from rain, splash, humidity, etc. Very comfortable, I wear it every minute on the water. And I'm old and fat.


In memory of my childhood friend Dan Sterling, who taught me at an early age how to catch bream with a hand-line, and who unknowingly hooked me on fishing for life.

I bought two new auto inflate mustangs at bass pro last summer, then I bought a new skeeter, while changing out fishing stuff I accidently pulled the cord on one of them and set it off only one side fully inflated because the velcro kept the other side from fully inflating and it was hard as a rock, took them back and got two full size life jackets because I would not want that to happen if I was launched out of the boat.
