The top buckle does not have enough adjustability, so while the other buckles fit fine the top one only is too tight. I find this the case on the 3-buckle teen vest I also purchased, but at least that one is usable. I'll keep the child vest as a spare since it's not worth the cost of shipping it back, but it will not be used for daily use as intended...these both miss the mark.

        Comments about Overton's Overton's Youth Nylon Vest:

        Searched all over for nice, comfortable, durable life vests at a competetive price. These are as nice and comfortable as much more expensive neoprene vests, but about 1/2 the price. My kids love the color options and super-cool graphics. They enjoy them so much, actually rush to put them on every time.
