1A - Double-Stitched Seams
The strongest stitching in the industry with double-needle seams and 8 to 10 stitches per inch for longer service life.
1B - Your Choice of Lumbar Protection
Choose from the standard 6" back Bib, optional 3" back Bib, or no Bib at all. Designed as an integral part of the Pants, they provide breathable overlap, padding for SCBA, and a perfect fit.
2 - Heavy-Duty Closure
Standard leather-backed hook & dee at the top of the fly flap works with quadruple-stitched Velcro® fastener or choose from several closure options. Added Benefit: 3" X 8" thermal fly inside provides additional "no-gap" protection.
3 - Expansion Pockets
Two 2" X 8" X 8" full bellows style pockets have an extra layer of shell material to reinforce the lower half for longer wear life. Perpendicular Velcro® fastener secures the flap empty or full. Added Benefit: Pocket flaps are oversize for complete coverage when pockets are full.
4 - 2-Layer Independent Waistband
Two inches wide and lined with water resistant fabric, the Waistband is cut on the bias (diagonally) for stretch and a comfortable, unrestricted fit. Added Benefit: Design reduces stress by redistributing weight away from the Suspenders and shoulders and onto the waist. Liner attaches under the Waistband for comfortable, no-gap protection.
5 - Easy Adjust Take-Up Straps
Just one quick pull for up to 4" adjustment at the waist using black NOMEX® Twill and high temperature polymer buckles. No exposed Velcro®, metal buckles to corrode, or dangling straps!
6 - Super-Duty H-Back Suspenders
Standard with every pair of Pants, they feature 2" rigid webbing material over the shoulder for slip resistance, 2" elastic front and back for unrestricted motion, and high temperature polymer hardware. Ripcord quick-release design is also available.
7 - Flex-Action Knees
To add mobility to the knee when crawling, kneeling, or climbing, we sew a proportionally contoured bellows panel incorporating 4 expansion pleats into the Outer Shell, complemented by darts in the Thermal Liner and Moisture Barrier of the knee.
8 - Thermally Enhanced Knees
An extra layer of your specified Thermal Liner and Moisture Barrier in the Liner Knees adds padding for comfort and protects this high compression area.
9 - Reverse Boot Cut
Pant legs are 1 inch shorter in the back to avoid premature cuff wear.
9A - Heavy-Duty Cuff Reinforcement
Our cuff reinforcements are twice as wide and set with double the rows of stitching -
a total of 4 rows. Pearl gray premium leather is standard with many other reinforcement material options available.
10 - Patented TRIMTRAX™ Thread Protection System
The wear tested solution to premature trim stitching failure. Abrasion-resistant cording protects the thread and lasts at least 5 times longer so maintenance costs are lower and your gear is in service with minimum downtime.
10A - Reflective Trim and Lettering
We offer a wide choice of trim styles and materials to meet your visibility and identification requirements.
11 - Reinforced Hardware
All hook & dees and Suspender buttons are reinforced with precision die-cut leather. Reinforcement is centered to ensure that the hardware never misses the intended application point.
12 - Women’s Sizes
Available in a full range of patterns designed specifically for the female firefighter.
13 - Optional SILIZONE™ Foam Knees
Knees can be padded with SILIZONE™ foam padding to make crawling almost heavenly.
