Mustang Minimalist Azure Blue Inflatable Belt Pack

The Mustang Survival Minimalist Inflatable Belt Pack is a manual belt pack PFD in Azure Blue, rated to 88 lb, sized universal adult.

Azure blue is the visible option against the discreet Admiral Gray, and on the water color is a safety feature rather than a style choice. Blue is not as visible as orange or yellow against open water, but it is considerably easier to spot than gray, which is worth weighing on a paddle away from other boats.

A belt pack is worn at the waist and deployed by pulling the bladder out and over the head after entering the water, so it needs a conscious wearer to work. The trade for that is one people accept, since a belt pack is unobtrusive enough to be worn on a warm day where a vest would be taken off and stowed. Explore more life jackets and PFDs.
