A standard AK-1 near shore vest can become saturated after only a few hours in the water. If you're offshore fishing, racing, or cruising, Type I commercial vests are for you. Vinyl inserts protect the foam filling in these vest. Reflective tape on shoulders. USCG approved Type I. Available in adult and children. Comes in International orange. 22 pounds buoyancy. Holds uncontious wearer's face out of the water.
Kid's didn't complain.

Comments about Kent Kent Type I Commercial Life Jacket:
I bought two of these vest to take my 5 year old twin boys crabbing. I'm a little on the paranoid side so I wanted a vest that wouldn't water log and keep their heads above water (i.e., type 1 vest).
I was concerned less about comfort or style, but we have been on two trips and so far no complaints from the boys.
