Matik Inflatable PFD
An alternative to waist-belted PFDs, the low-profile NRS Matik Inflatable PFD resembles a traditional lifevest with the compact convenience of an inflatable.
The NRS Matik Inflatable PFD folds compactly into a low-profile horse-collar style jacket giving you on-demand flotation that doesn’t get in your way stand-up paddling, fishing, or wading. This inflatable PFD features a zippered pocket with an internal tether for keys or a whistle plus a manual backup cord, mouth inflation valve, reflective accents, and two attachment points. The Matik’s inflation tab must be manually engaged but delivers on-demand flotation for flatwater and near-shore paddling and fishing.

NRS Matik Features
- This lightweight self-inflating PFD provides 22.5 lbs. of flotation and only meets U.S. Coast Guard requirements as a Type III life jacket when worn.
- The Matik folds compactly into a low-profile horse-collar style jacket to give you on-demand flotation that doesn’t get in your way stand-up paddling, fishing, or wading.
- When deflated, the vest secures with a waist buckle and offers one adjustment point for a snug fit.
- The Matik does not inflate automatically; in the event of a swim, pull the red tab to engage the pressurized CO2, inflating the integrated bladder.
- Features a zippered pocket with an internal tether for keys or a whistle plus a manual backup cord, mouth inflation valve, reflective accents, and two attachment points.
- Includes a 24-gram CO2 cartridge. Replacement CO2 Re-Arming Kits (Item #40100.01) are sold separately.
- CO2 cartridges are one-time-use only. It’s good practice to keep an extra CO2 cartridge on hand to re-arm the PFD after each inflation.
