How much float does this lifejacket have? I am not a very good swimmer so I am looking for a lifejacket with pretty good buoyancy.

I weigh about 220lbs and I go water skiing with it. Many crashes and it keeps me afloat just fine without any swimming effort. I can just sit there in the water if I want. Hope that helps.

Aloha a wetsuit does not take the place of a choosen vest that inflates when you pull tab this is the most you can do to be more buyount.

This is an excellent ski jacket. Given the right size; you should be held almost upright during flotation.

I'm sorry, but I don't have the answer to your question as I purchased this life jacket as a gift for my son-in-law. I can tell you that he uses it for kayaking/canoeing and he loves it because it doesn't get in the way when he is paddling.

My opinion is 250 pounds as we have had many different sized swimmers and never had a problem. Bought it 2 years ago and very pleased with this product

I have a 19 month old that weighs 23lbs. We tried on a friend's Puddle Jumper and it fit a little loose but it still help him float and enjoy himself. Off course, you need to keep a constant eye on your child even with a life vest. I don't think it will fall off, my child is on the slim side and it did not slide off his arms.

Hi, fellow member of the "Leonard" club. The glove is not waterproof and I believe, but don't know for sure, that the glove would float for a while, from air temporarily trapped in the glove. Don't forget that right handed folks wear the glove on the left hand. Good luck, Leonard Kay

It might with floatation a little. I have used it in Hawaii in Salt Water. Salt water help with floatation too so I'm not sure how much the vest helps that way. It sure helps keep me warmer so I can snorkel longer though.

See the handle hanging (lowest item in the photo) that is attached by a line to a small cylinder of air. You have to pull that handle to set off the air that inflates the vest. It is category III lifevest:" Good for calm, inland waters, or where there is a good chance for fast rescue." I was a little disappointed that the makers of these vests are not required to state that in their advertisements. I bought mine for offshore kayaking, and I really should have purchased a more expensive model. If you are doing any river rafting I would recommend something that does not require manual inflation. If you accidentally bump your head, you may be incapable of igniting this device. Good luck. See the handle hanging (lowest item in the photo) that is attached by a line to a small cylinder of air.

They do not float. That said, I love the fins for swimming laps. Its my second pair

Seems like an odd question as the description clearly indicates it floats & it is waterproof. ?????

This is just the Jacket that goes over the lifeproof case to make it float. You need to buy the lifeproof case

In my experience, I wouldn't suggest this for a child so young. Look for a vest or suit that will keep them afloat or a ring that goes in the pool.

Not with any luck. It is a life jacket, it's purpose is to keep you afloat if you are not a good swimmer or if laws wherever you are boating or floating in my case mandate it.

No this belt doesn't have the same floatation. Aquajogger would be recommended.

Through Lifeproof site, I have only seen a lifeproof lifejacket for the phone's.(4, 4S, 5, 5c, 5s), but now I have seen one for the ipad mini. havent seen one personally but i'm sure that it would work just like the one for the phone. I have one for my iphone 4. and it works just like it says, Floats and wont sink to the bottom. Hope this has helped you in some way or another. =o)

It depends on if your child can swim. This is a swim vest, not a life vest. I put my non-swimmer in it and he went completely under water. It's not a flotation device. If your child can swim already, it might be good for snorkeling - it is thin and light weight.

I've got mine wet a couple of times, Don't know if you can swim in it. It take quite a bit of abuse.
