Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this a life jacket?
A: No. This is a MYTHK Impact Vest—built for movement, comfort, and confidence on the water. It offers impact protection, not life-saving flotation. For certified flotation, a life jacket is required.
Q: Is the MYTHK Impact Vest certified?
A: Not yet. Impact vests require independent testing for official certification. This vest is designed as a performance piece, not a certified life jacket. If certification is added in the future, it will be listed clearly.
Q: How buoyant is it?
A: The vest delivers an estimated 35–40N of buoyancy—placing it in the buoyancy-aid/impact-vest category. It provides support in the water but isn’t certified to save your life. This vest is all about mobility and ride performance.
Q: What is this vest designed for?
A: The MYTHK Impact Vest is built for the water lifestyle—wakeboarding, wake-surfing, skiing, tubing, kite-boarding, and all-day sessions behind the boat. It’s crafted for riders who want freedom, comfort, and protection without sacrificing style.
Q: Does it fit tight?
A: Yes. A snug fit is part of the design. The tighter profile locks the vest to your body so it moves with you, not against you. Once it’s wet, the fit becomes even more natural and flexible.
Q: What materials is it made from?
• Premium Neoprene Outer
• High-density EPE or PVC foam (depending on model)
• Resin or YKK zipper
• Durable pearl-luster stitching
• Nylon/Spandex binding for stretch and comfort
Every component is chosen for performance, durability, and the clean MYTHK finish.
Q: Is it quick-drying?
A: Absolutely. The neoprene exterior and nylon/polyester interior dry fast, stay light, and hold their shape—perfect for back-to-back sets or long days on the water.
Q: How durable is the vest?
A: MYTHK vests are reinforced with double-stitched seams, UV-resistant materials, and long-lasting foam. This vest is built to handle consistent use without losing structure or comfort.
Q: How do I choose my size?
A: Use the MYTHK size guide on the product page. It shows exact measurements for chest, hem, length, and shoulder width for both men and women.
If you prefer a more relaxed feel, size up—but remember, impact vests are designed to fit snug for performance.
Q: How do I care for my vest?
• Hand wash only
• Cool water (max 30°C)
• No bleach, no tumble dry
• No ironing or dry-cleaning
• Dry completely after each use
• Store out of direct sunlight
Care for it well and it will stay looking and performing like new.
Q: Can this vest replace a lifejacket?
A: No. This is a performance impact vest, not a certified flotation device. Always follow your local safety laws when out on the water.
