Anyone have any feedback on the i-float jacket and/or bibs? I'm considering getting both, but there's very little in the way of reviews out there.

I need this but would love to hear some reviews as well.

I just received the jacket yesterday. I ordered it last Thursday from fieldsupply.com. Quality seems to be good but I hope not to find out how buoyant it is until maybe warmer water temps. LOL. The only complaint I have is that it could use some breast pockets. Once I actually get to use it on the ice I will find out how warm it is. The only insulation is the floatation foam and being windproof should help some in that department. The jacket is stiff because of the floatation foam but should get better with use.  Maybe I will get the bibs next month
   
There is a video on Youtube where a Frabil pro-staffer jumps into the water wearing the suit. Even with jumping into the water his head never went underwater.
