The NRS Chinook PFD is a Level 70 fishing life jacket built around the Orbit Fit System, which layers precision-cut closed-cell foam pieces into a pre-curved shape that conforms to the body. The contoured back flotation panel sits flush against an angler's back, and a mesh lower back adds ventilation on warm days.
NRS Every Body Design eliminates separate men's and women's models, while Graded Sizing matches flotation to body type across three size ranges covering 30 to 56 inch (76 to 142 cm) chests for users 88 lbs (40 kg) and up. Design flotation is 14.6 lbs (6.6 kg) in XS/M and 15.75 lbs (7.1 kg) in M/L and XL/XXL. A YKK zipper entry combines with four side adjustments and two shoulder adjustments to lock in the fit, and a silicone-coated inner waistband holds the PFD in place during a swim.
Storage is where the Chinook has earned its reputation over more than ten years on the water. Two large clamshell pockets are sized for fly boxes and tackle boxes and include internal organization, with a third exterior pocket on the angler's right side for gear that needs to stay within reach. A hook-and-loop tool holder pocket keeps pliers and line cutters accessible and pairs with an integrated rod holder loop for hands-free tasks. The medium-profile shell uses 420-denier ripstop nylon over PVC-free Ethafoam shims with a recycled nylon inner. 3M reflective accents, shoulder strap keepers, a knife lash tab, and additional front and back attachment points handle low-light visibility and accessory mounting for knives, lights, and strobes.
