Really great quality materials and build, my own children had these when they were learning to swim.

However, I bought the 18 months to 3 years size for my 28 month old grandson, and it is far far to big, so really not much use at the moment, which is a shame as he loves to be in the water. (Posted on 29/10/2019)

Great Vest to wear whilst at the swimming pool on holiday. It gave my son the confidence to go down the slides independently. It also helped him whilst jumping in and swimming. I would definitely recommend. we found the fit to be snug so we removed a couple of the floats which made the vest fit more comfortably. (Posted on 22/10/2019)

This is the second swim jacket I have bought my son from Konfidence. They are great quality. The foam inserts can be removed if needed. This could be explained a little better, but overall very happy with swim jackets. Other people have commented that they liked it and asked me where I bought it from. My sons wears his with armbands as recommended by his swim teacher as he is very young. (Posted on 06/09/2019)

I'm so glad that we purchased the swim jacket for our 5 year old. They give so much more freedom than armbands. Was a little unsure of what size to get as we were right on the chest limit of the smaller one, I contacted customer services who were extremely helpful and we went with the larger side which was perfect. Highly recommended. (Posted on 28/08/2019)

Bought this jacket last minute for a trip for my 2 year old daughter. Customer service was fantastic when I selected the wrong delivery option and it was delivered on time before we went away. The jacket is well made and feels very secure. My daughter was very comfortable and confident in it and it was easier to assist her in it than with arm bands. Fantastic product and would recommend it to others. (Posted on 27/08/2019)

I bought Konfidence jackets for my 3yo daughter and 5yo son this summer holiday. Both have really enjoyed the independence the jackets have given them, the jackets allow them to move around the pool regardless of the depth of the pool. My son has already progressed to swimming without it with absolute confidence, so the jackets live up to their name. My daughter is learning to kick and paddle to move herself around the pool. I am so impressed with this product, I am very satisfied with the results. (Posted on 13/08/2019)

Excellent training aid. Review by Aaron

Quality

Service

We purchased these specifically for our holiday overseas. Although our children (ages 2&4) have been attending swimming lesson form a very early age without the use of buoyancy aids attached to them, we wanted to ensure they were safe in the pool and confident to play. They loved having them on and they didn’t restrict their swimming technique. In fact, we saw a level of confidence that we hadn’t seen before. They were trying to swim independently more often and quickly learnt how to tread water.

We purchased the same size vests for both kids paying more attention to the weight categories rather than recommended age. This was definitely the right option. The vest fits snugly which prevents them riding up and the fabric is kind to their skin (no rashes).

I would recommend this product if you want piece of mind that your child is safe in the water and allows them to fully participate in all swimming activities.

Service from Konfidence was great, team very responsive to queries and product arrived promptly in good condition.
We used the swim jackets for lake swimming on a holiday and our children clearly improved their confidence in the water with them on. Konfidence very clearly state this is a swimming aid, requiring close supervision when in use which I would reiterate to any parent- when one of our children fell in head first they would have floated head down if we hadn’t been there to scoop them out.
Children love swimming wearing them though, has defintely increased their enjoyment of water. (Posted on 18/07/2019)

This is a must for anyone heading on their hols with keen little swimmers to be. They have the freedom to use their arms ... and I am almost 100% certain it speeded up the whole swimming unaided process for my son! Both of my children have swum with WaterBabies from 6 months and I wanted something that would keep both safe when in the pool with one adult, whilst also keeping up the momentum with their swimming progress. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Daughter (4) used it for a few days before no longer needing it and son (3) has improved (less confident than daughter) dramatically. (Posted on 11/08/2018)

The jacket is perfect for our 3 year old son, who is not normally confident in the water. It fits really well, stays in place in the water and is comfortable. We really noticed the quality of the safety vest, especially compared to some of the cheaper copies out there.
The service from Konfidence was first class and we can not recommend it highly enough. We had some questions about the size (my son is 3yrs with a 20” chest) so I emailed and they responded straight back (we got the age 2-3). The jacket arrived quickly, thank goodness as we were going on holiday the same week. A great product and great service! Thank you! (Posted on 30/07/2018)

I odered 2 products unsure about which one kept this one the jacket which is perfect and sent the other one back, refund was dealt with straight away delivery was quick everything about them is efficient.
I only wish every company I dealt with was this good.
The jacket is well made sturdy and good value for money.

I have tried a few different swim vests for my daughter who won’t go in the water without armbands but finally we have got rid of the armbands and using this swim vest she has found it much easier to practice swimming with the use of her arms. The vest is a fabulous fit and doesn’t ride up on her and many others have. It’s so pretty to look at and value for money. Would definitely recommend! (Posted on 20/04/2018)

Our daughter (6yrs) went to a swimming party at the weekend and was a little nervous about it as shes not the best of swimmers. She is confident but the jacket just gave her the reassurance she need to just enjoy herself and not worry about the swimming. As a result she had a great time and swam really well.

This swim jacket is fab, for the past few years on holiday I have had to constantly be in the water with my daughter whilst she wore her arm bands. This year (as I am writing this whilst she is in the pool with her siblings) she has grown in confidence, is constantly afloat and a very happy girl jumping in from the pool side and swimming around.
Very happy with this and looks lovely. Thank you Konfidence!! (Posted on 31/08/2017)

This jacket is wonderful! My daughter had outgrown her speedo neoprene jacket's weight limit, so we bought the konfidence jacket for our beach holiday. My daughter cannot swim but at 7, wants to be deeper in the ocean and enjoy the rough waves. This jacket allowed her (and us) to enjoy many hours playing in the rough surf with confidence and didn't restrict her movements at all! I followed the size guide which placed her in the 4-5 years jacket, which I was unsure about when ordering, but it is a perfect fit. It didn't ride up and it wasn't too tight (she has autism and I assure you she would've let us know if it was in any way uncomfortable!).
All around, an awesome purchase, and the bright yellow back was more helpful than I thought it would be originally, as it was great for spotting her at a distance!! (Posted on 03/08/2017)

Does exactly what it promisesReview by Andrea

I bought this for my 2.5 year old to use initially on holiday where I knew we would be swimming daily. After a couple of days he had gained the confidence to paddle by himself in water too deep for him to stand (obviously we were always on hand) and after a week he was jumping into the deep end of the pool and paddling out to us. He paddled the whole length of an 8m pool many times in it. He absolutely loved wearing the jacket, it must have been very comfortable. He is very tall and having measured his chest and spoken to customer services (who were very helpful) I went for the 4-5 years size (he is 18kg so below the weight range for that size but within the chest range) which fit perfectly and did not rise up to under his chin; as described it fits snugly and to fasten the zip you have to stretch the fabric a little. All in all a huge success and thoroughly recommended by us! (Posted on 25/07/2017)

These jackets are absolutely fabulous. When your child wears one of these the fear of falling into the pool accidentally is taken away, because it contains enough floats to keep your child afloat no matter what. But make sure you see the company measurement so that you get the correct sizing. Another great thing about the jacket is that when they are running around the pool the visual back of the jacket is easy to pick out from the crowd with ease. (Posted on 03/04/2017)

Bought this for my 7 year old Grandson. Previously we had used armbands. The product worked really well. It gave him sufficient buoyancy and he was unrestricted. Able to float with confidence and use arms and legs to propel himself along. He loved it and thought it was great. I also purchased a pair of goggles and these also were well received and helped with no water going in his eyes. My Grandson had so much fun in the Swim Jacket that an hour passed very quickly. Next step is to start the gradual removal of the floats within the jacket. I have to admit this was a worthwhile purchase, the overall progress made in this one session was amazing and I am pretty confident that the Swim jacket will speed up the process to the eventual swimming unaided.

Purchased last week and tried and tested today at local pool. Our 6 year old loves the water but reluctant swimmer. The jacket - a medium - looked small - I was sceptical. But as soon as he hit the water he was away and I admit free styling - but most importantly swimming and enjoying completing widths and dunking his head. Genuinely surprised how fast he took to it. Great and safe product. I found one by chance in Spain - genuinely impressed! Wish we had discovered one 3 years ago. Great service too with plenty of information to hand. (Posted on 31/08/2016)

I recently purchased 2 Konfidence swimming jackets for my grandchildren aged 4 and 2 the jackets purchased were KJ05SC and KJ14MC.

Can I just that the jackets were absolutely fantastic; they've got to be one of the best things we purchased for them. At the end of their 3 week holiday in America both of them were swimming with total confidence and we at no time had to worry about them getting in to any difficulties while wearing the jackets. I found your website by accident and I’m so glad I did. As they get old we'll definitely be buying larger Konfidence jackets if required.

Fantastic product!!

Every parent (and grand parents) should know about these jackets, thank you so much. (Posted on 04/07/2013)

I thought I'd write a short note to say how pleased we are with the Konfidence jacket which arrived a few days ago. We haven't work it in the pool yet, but I'm already very impressed by the design and the quality of the manufacturing - I can't wait to see our child (George, 18mths) going bonkers in the big pool. We tried it on last night and the fit is exactly as you describe it should be, about 2cm gap before zipping. It felt a bit tight to me at first, but Geore was not worried at all by this; in fact he spent half an hour wearing it around the house, because he had a tantrum every time we tried to take it off him. It's a big hit!

Thanks very much for the product, and the great service. I'll definitely recommend it whenever the opportunity arises. (Posted on 04/07/2013)
