First Watch AV-800 XXL/3XL Hi-Vis Yellow Flotation Vest

The First Watch AV-800 is a four-pocket USCG Type III flotation vest in hi-vis yellow, sized XXL/3XL.

Hi-vis yellow in the largest size suits commercial and industrial waterside work, where high visibility is often a site requirement rather than a preference. Docks, barges and construction sites frequently mandate hi-vis, and a flotation vest that also meets that requirement replaces two garments with one.

XXL/3XL allows for jackets, layers or duty gear underneath, which is what a working vest has to accommodate rather than fitting a bare torso. A vest that cannot be fastened over what is actually worn is a vest worn open, and open vests ride up in the water.

A removable fleece-lined collar with a ventilation port at its base handles both cold and the heat that builds under a vest during work. Four pockets with mesh organizers in the lower two, a lash tab, two mic loops, a throttle D-ring and SOLAS reflective tape front and back. Explore more life jackets and PFDs.
