Nice, comfortable life vests
I've got some crappy Wal-Mart life vests that I wear in poker runs or when I'm out by myself, and think that if I had some that fit better and were better, I'd buy some. There's nowhere local to buy any, except for Wal-Mart.
What are some good vests that can be found online, and what's everyone's top choice?

I just bought three Lifelines to use when I run hard with two co-pilots that I trust.
I also have a set of wakeboarding vests that I bought through Boaters world that are real nice and 3 inflatables.
In total I will now have 3 Lifelines, 4 Wakeboard, 3 inflatable and 3 standard orange type III.
I only seat 5 but the Lifelines are not CG app. and I want to have different sizes avail.

Sterns 4185 SAR Jackets. 100 mph impact rating with leg straps. Should be able to find them just under a $100
Not as good as the Lifelines but a decent alternative if your not running over 70-80 I'd think.
