Parents, be cautious when shopping for life jackets online, especially on platforms like Amazon. Recently, fake life jackets designed for kids have been flooding the market. These counterfeit products may look similar to certified life jackets but often lack critical safety features. They may not meet proper buoyancy standards and can pose significant risks in water emergencies.

Always check for U.S. Coast Guard-approved labeling and purchase from trusted retailers to ensure your child’s safety.
