Seachoice 99505 General Purpose Life Vest – Infant | Navy/Light Blue

The Seachoice 99505 is an infant general purpose life vest built for comfort, security and ease of use on the water. The 210-denier nylon shell — used on both the outer and inner faces — provides durability against regular use and exposure to sun and water. A segmented PE foam hinge along the back allows the vest to flex with the child’s movements rather than riding stiff, while oversized armholes keep the fit from restricting arm motion. Quick-release buckles with adjustable webbing let caregivers achieve a snug, secure fit quickly, and built-in drain holes prevent water from pooling inside the vest. ULC and D.O.T. approved for use in Canada and the United States.

Intended Use

This vest is designed for infants participating in recreational boating and supervised on-water activities. The quick-release buckle system and adjustable webbing allow caregivers to fit the vest securely and remove it quickly when needed. Always keep infants under direct adult supervision when on or near the water, regardless of whether a life vest is worn.

Sizing and Fit

Designed for infant sizing. Adjust all buckles and webbing so the vest fits snugly against the body and cannot be pulled above the chin or ears. Recheck fit at the start of every outing as children grow quickly and fit should be verified regularly.

When This Vest Needs Replacement

• The infant has outgrown the vest’s size range.
• The PE foam has become compressed, waterlogged or damaged.
• The nylon shell is torn, punctured or excessively worn.
• Any buckle, webbing or stitching is damaged or no longer functions correctly.

• The approval or identification label is missing or unreadable.

Care Notes

• Allow to air dry completely before storage.

Parts Desk Insight

This is the right choice for parents and caregivers who need a straightforward, approved infant vest for recreational boating without the bulk of a full-featured jacket. The segmented back hinge and oversized armholes make it noticeably more comfortable for infants than stiffer foam designs, which matters on longer outings. Fit should be checked at the start of every season — infants grow quickly and a vest that fit last summer may no longer provide a safe, snug fit.
