Worth it.
We’re dedicated to surfing and building gear that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in the water.
Personal Surf Inflation Vest
The PSI Vest was born from watching our friends get worked in serious surf—and in some cases, not coming back up. It gets surfers back to the surface, shortens the beatings, speeds up recovery and adds an extra layer of safety in the heaviest conditions.
Our product designers and testers dove into the PSI Vest 2.0 at a micro level, with each material and feature tested and developed specifically for this project. Over the past decade, big-wave surfers have proven our vest to be best in class, and it just got better.
Working closely with Patagonia Big-Wave Ambassadors Greg Long, Paige Alms, Kohl Christensen and Ian Walsh, we’ve redesigned the bladder and canister placement for the PSI Vest 2.0 and updated it with new lightweight materials for increased mobility and comfort.
Relentlessly Refined
Years of R&D, ambassador feedback and science-informed engineering shape everything we make. Every improvement comes from time in the water and problem solving alongside the people who push the sport.
