It’s physiology. When you bend your knee to step up, sit down, or crawl, you need 5 inches more length over the knee and 8 inches more length in the seat or else your movements will be restricted. Our patented AXTION™ Knee and Seat provide extra length and fullness where you need it, while our patented Adjustable Belt Closure transfers weight to your hips instead of your shoulders and keeps the roomy fit under control.  Click here for more detailed information about G-XTREME™.

It’s physiology. When you move your arms to work in front of you or raise them up to work above you, you need more length across your back and more length under your arms or else your movements will be restricted. Our AXTION™ Back with full-length expansion pleats and AXTION™ Sleeve with pleats and darts on the front and back of each sleeve allows unrestricted movement with or without an SCBA and produces minimum coat rise when you reach up.  Click here for more information.

External harnesses are fine for rescue operations, but for everyday wear they are heavy and always in the way. Internal harnesses are simpler, but are typically heavy, hard to adjust, and restrictive. The new Globe Cairns IH Pants use hidden KEVLAR® leg loops between the shell and the liner without the need for any hardware. Just put your pants on, buckle the waist buckle, and you are ready to attach the tether of your choice. The patent pending harness is certified to NFPA 1983 (Life Safety) as a Class II seat harness, but the IH Pants make it seem like you’re not wearing a harness at all.  Click here for more detailed information about REAXTION™.

Total Heat Loss (THL) is a test that measures the ability of materials to allow body heat and moisture to pass through the garment – the higher the THL number, the more breathable. Turnout gear has a minimum THL of 205 W/m2. CONVERTIBLE™ has a minimum THL of 450 W/m2 with its CROSSTECH® fabric liner in place for Rescue and Recovery and 600 W/m2 when removed to convert to Utility. And with CONVERTIBLE™, you can choose to zip in a fleece liner when it’s cold, or take it out when it’s not. Any way you roll, the result is dramatically lighter, more breathable, protective gear that is the right gear for the job.  Click here for more detailed information about CONVERTIBLE™.
