Ditto above. Ruffwear seems to have more vest on the lower part of the dog, giving it more bouancy.

havn't used NRS, but chance has worn his ruffwear since about 3 or so, I would be very hard pressed to go with a different product.

he is sooooo funny, after a while, he knows he can float better than
without his jacket, and man he really starts letting those back legs work. kinda stalls em out full length, and slowly works another kick. almost like a glide of sorts.
