15 Years of Research.

Backed by 15 years of working with our team and riders across the globe. Through materials, finishes and stitching, every thought is given to the quality, look, & feel of our Life Vests and to how they impacts the experience of the rider. Inch by inch of every vest is meticulously thought through from zipper to stitching, nothing happens by accident. From materials to finishes to stitching, attention is paid to ensure the highest standards of quality, aesthetics, and functionality. We understand that the vest's quality, appearance, and feel profoundly influence the rider's experience, so every detail is carefully considered. From the choice of zippers to the precision of stitching, nothing is left to chance.

Truefit Liner.

The curve of your body is often neglected when considering fabric application in today’s vests. Acknowledging this, we set out to design a natural bond between our featherweight foam and our super stretchy neoprene that holds true to the organic curve of your torso without the crumpling effect of unbound neo. The new follow TrueFit© Liners adapt to your ups and downs for consistent day-long comfort.

Dual Layer Construction.

Wet neoprene increases in size by roughly 10%, depending on thickness and materials. We use both external and internal neoprene layers to minimize this effect. Dual-Layer Neoprene keeps the vest fitting as intended and helps to reduce chest expansion in the water.

Featherweight Foam.

There are two ways to keep a life jacket as light as possible: reduce water absorption and use the lightest materials we can get our hands on. Our featherweight foam is the best of both worlds. No kidding. Feel it for yourself.

Reduced Movement Segmentation.

Follow works closely with our factory to minimize the foam pocket sizing and to use a direct stitch-through process to manage areas that are prone to movement. This keeps all our foam in place for years to come.

You Get What You Pay For.

Freedom of movement combined with a universal strong and durable neoprene fabrics give a certain subtlety on the outside while maintaining its soft internal credibility. Why let fabric compromise the vision? Our neoprene is source from some of the world largest manufacturers to ensure absolute quality of the finished product. From out Secureprene - a textured neoprene with a more resilient porous outer acts to disperse pressure upon impact with the water. To our seriously stretchy and really comfortable. Feels like you’re wearin g nothing at all, without compromising durability.

Ribbed Paneling.

Ribbed Paneling enforces the vest’s structure while allowing for maximum movement. This also allows us to shape the vest beyond a traditional flat slab of foam to evenly spread impact distribution to the areas that need it most.

Reduced Foam Panel Segments.

Follow works closely with our factory to minimize the foam pocket sizing and to use a direct stitch-through process to manage areas that are prone to movement. This keeps all our foam in place for years to come.

YKK Aquaguard® Water Repellent Zippers.

Extra durable polyurethane laminated zippers with a special water repellent treatment not only look schmick but contribute to an extra defence against intrusive elements touching the skin.

Rider Designed.

We ride. They ride. You ride. With the help of our Pro riders, we have continuously developed and refined our vests from fit to performance to durability. The best riders in the world use and trust Follow Product. Enough Said.

Impact Vest Construction

Follow impact vests are built around a Featherweight Foam Dual-Layer construction — softer outer foam for impact absorption, denser inner foam for buoyancy. Combined with ergonomic panelling and the Truefit Liner system, each vest is tuned for the specific demands of wakeboarding, wake surf and foil.

Every Follow impact vest is tested on-body, in the water, before it ever enters production.

Frequently asked questions

What is Featherweight Foam dual-layer construction?

Follow's Featherweight Foam Dual-Layer is a two-density foam build: a softer outer layer that flexes with body movement and a denser inner layer that provides the 50N buoyancy required for tow-sports. The combination gives impact protection without the bulk of single-density foams.

What's the Truefit Liner?

The Truefit Liner is Follow's interchangeable interior pad system that lets you fine-tune the vest fit once you have the right shell size. Used across Follow's premium impact vests, the liner adapts the fit to different torso shapes and lengths.

How are Follow impact vests tested?

Every Follow impact vest design is tested on-body, in the water, before production. EU-shipped vests are also independently tested for CE compliance to EN ISO 12402-5 (50N). Production samples are batch-tested for foam density, seam strength and buoyancy.

Are Follow impact vests good for foiling and wake surf?

Yes. The Featherweight Foam construction is light enough for foil without sacrificing protection. For wake surf, the Corset and Tailored Duo fits give the freedom of shoulder movement that surfers need. Every Follow impact vest is engineered for the full range of tow-sports.
