Follow Grommy Youth – Harmonized Safety & Style

The Follow Grommy is designed to end the battle of getting kids to wear their life jackets. It is a Dual-Certified Harmonized Life Jacket, meaning it meets the rigorous safety standards of both Transport Canada and the U.S. Coast Guard. For parents in Vernon, this provides total peace of mind: it is a 100% legal life-saving device for all Canadian waterways, but it’s built with the premium materials and "cool factor" of a high-end impact vest.

Constructed with Follow’s Quad-S© (Seriously Soft-Super Stretchy) neoprene, the Grommy eliminates the itchy, plastic feel of traditional life jackets. The Featherweight Foam provides the buoyancy required by law without the bulk, allowing kids to swim, tube, and learn to surf on Kalamalka Lake with total freedom of movement. It’s a vest they’ll actually want to keep on all day.

Pro-Shop Specs:

• Dual-Certified (Harmonized): Fully approved by Transport Canada and the USCG. Legal for boat use across North America.

• Quad-S© Neoprene: Follow’s "Seriously Soft-Super Stretchy" fabric ensures a soft feel against the skin and an easy fit for growing groms.

• Youth-Specific Silhouette: Tailored specifically for a youth torso to prevent the vest from riding up or shifting during activity.

• Featherweight Foam: High-buoyancy, low-mass foam that keeps the vest light even when soaking wet.

• Heavy-Duty Hardware: Features a secure YKK locker zipper and high-strength buckles for maximum safety under tension.

⚡ THE ATTRIDGE FIT TIP: IS IT LEGAL?

In Canada, a vest is only "legal" if it has the Transport Canada or Canadian Coast Guard approval stamp inside.

• The Harmonized Label: Look for the "Level 70" harmonized icon inside the Grommy. This confirms it is legal in both Canada and the USA.

• The Lift Test: Once buckled, lift the vest by the shoulders. If it slides up past the child’s ears, it’s too big. A secure fit is a safe fit.

• Weight Ranges: Always follow the weight ratings on the label. The buoyancy is precisely calculated for those specific weight brackets to ensure the wearer stays afloat correctly.

• Safety First: Unlike "Impact Vests," this is a Life-Saving Device.
