Westin W4 Flotation Suit

High Functionality and Safety for Sea and Extreme Anglers

The Westin W4 Flotation Suit is a flotation suit designed with quality and functionality at its core, built around the demands of sea and extreme anglers. The outer shell is PU-coated 210D nylon with fully taped seams. Inside, a lightweight, flexible foam provides thermal insulation and buoyancy, while the integrated mesh lining ensures effective moisture transport. High-wear areas at the seat and knees are reinforced with robust 210D ripstop nylon. Fit is dialled in via drawcords at the knee, elasticated neoprene cuffs, and leg openings that are adjustable in two places with hook-and-loop closures. A standout feature is the integrated braces, which keep the lower half securely in place even when the upper section is unzipped and folded down - preventing any unwanted shifting and making it quick to pull the top back up when the wind picks up. The combination of waterproof materials, precisely matched buoyancy elements, and an ergonomic cut gives the W4 Flotation Suit genuine all-day comfort alongside a high level of safety.

Protection from the Elements and Safety on the Water

The Westin W4 Flotation Suit incorporates a range of design features that make a real difference to protection and safety afloat. These include a roll-away hood in high-visibility neon yellow, fitted with an integrated 180° panoramic visor for an unobstructed field of view. An extra-high collar with a soft fleece lining shields the back of the neck reliably against cold wind. A safety belt with an additional hook-and-loop fastening keeps everything locked in place, while the high-quality SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) reflective material - sewn with a reinforced zigzag stitch - significantly increases visibility in poor conditions. On the shoulder you'll find a dedicated window pocket for a VHF radio; note that this pocket is not waterproof. Dedicated attachment loops also allow you to fit an automatic lifejacket to the W4 Flotation Suit should you want an additional layer of protection.

A Practical Pocket Layout for Essential Gear

The Westin W4 Flotation Suit comes with nine pockets in total, giving you plenty of storage for accessories and essential items. Two of these pockets feature a warming fleece lining to take the chill off cold hands quickly. The chest pockets are fitted with neon-yellow, water-resistant zips that protect the contents from spray while adding to overall visibility. For documents or valuables, there is an inner pocket accessed directly over the main zip, so you can reach it without having to open the entire suit.

Certified Protection - Twice Over

The Westin W4 Flotation Suit carries a dual certification that confirms it meets rigorous safety standards. The suit as a whole is certified to DS/EN ISO 12402-6 as a buoyancy aid for specialist use, providing reliable support in the water. For emergencies, there is also an integrated signal whistle certified to DS/EN ISO 12402-8, giving you an effective means of attracting attention. Comfort and safety - that is what the W4 Flotation Suit delivers.
