  1. i know the diff between calling it a life jacket and a PFD and unless you are in some serious white water, out in open water at sea or just dont know how to swim then you dont need a crotch strap. please, have you ever seen a water skiier, tuber, or wakeboarder with a crotch strap?...unless they are infant jackets, oh, excuse me, PFDs


  2. The leg strap or crotch strap will keep the PFD (not life jacket) from being shucked off your body in violent water. The PFD has great buoyancy and if not retained with a strap it may rise up off your torso. Be safe not sorry.
