First Watch AB-1100 Flotation Bomber Jacket - Hi-Vis Orange/Black - Large

The First Watch AB-1100 Flotation Bomber Jacket in Hi-Vis Orange/Black is a specialized personal flotation device designed for maritime professionals, commercial fishermen, and rescue personnel who operate on open water. This flotation bomber jacket combines integrated buoyancy with protective outerwear, engineered to keep wearers visible, warm, and afloat during extended time on deck or in emergency situations.

The AB-1100 features a shorter length construction that prevents tangling in rigging while maintaining full torso coverage essential for working decks in cold weather. The high-visibility orange and black color scheme meets maritime safety standards for visibility in both daylight and low-light conditions. Built with rugged construction materials, this jacket withstands the rigors of saltwater environments, repeated movement, and harsh deck conditions. The integrated flotation system provides passive buoyancy assistance without requiring inflation or manual activation—a critical safety feature when working alone or in rough seas where manual PFD deployment may not be feasible.

This flotation jacket is purpose-built for commercial fishing crews, Coast Guard personnel, rescue teams, and maritime workers who cannot compromise between protective gear and emergency flotation. Offshore anglers, tugboat operators, and professional mariners recognize that staying above water during an unexpected event depends on wearing proper flotation at all times. The AB-1100 serves crews who need both active weather protection and passive safety redundancy during their entire watch or shift, eliminating the need to choose between warmth and buoyancy.
