It took hundreds of hours of interviews with the nation's toughest firefighters, breakthroughs in ergonomic design from a renowned university professor, and the engineering skills of the nation's most experienced manufacturer to develop G-XTREME™ - the most advanced turnout gear ever.
Built not only to provide maximum protection and durability, but also designed to move the way the human body moves - without restriction - enabling you to push the limits of performance, with less stress and less fatigue.
Step up or kneel down without restriction. The revolutionary G-XTREME™ pants allow for the added length you need in the knee and seat. Move your arms forward freely. Our AXTION™ back provides added length across your back for you to work in front of you without restriction. Reach up with no constraint. G-XTREME™ adds length under the sleeve and attaches the wrister to the liner so that you move freely. The list of design enhancements goes on and on.
Helping to make G-XTREME Pants fit like a pair of jeans, to transfer weight to your hips instead of your shoulders, and to keep the added length and fullness in the seat under control, the back of the waist is elasticized. A vertical VELCRO® storm fly and the permanently attached belt with an adjustable high-temp polymer buckle in front makes for fast and secure donning.
When you bend your knees, the revolutionary G-TREME Pants allow for the added length and fullness you need in the seat. Not only can you step up without restriction, but when you kneel your knees are directly over the knee pads without any twisting of the leg. When you try on a pair, you'll immediately appreciate just how dramatic this difference is.
Horizontal pleats built into the shell and corresponding darts in the AXTION™ Liner on the front of each leg provides extra length where you need it for stepping up, sitting down, kneeling, or crawling. The fronts of the legs are wider than the back to provide more fullness over the knee where you want it and less bulk under the knee where you don't. Side seams are rolled toward the back of the legs keeping them out of the primary abrasion area. Together with the AXTION™ Seat and Liner, this system allows you to bend your knees without restriction.
Two inches wide and lined with water resistant fabric, the waistband is cut on the bias (diagonally) for stretch and an unrestricted fit. Liner attaches under the waistband for no-gap protection.
Distributes fabric stress over five double-stitched seams in both the shell and liner.
The strongest double-needle joining seams in the industry with more stitches per inch for longer service life.
Two 10" X 10" X 2" full bellows style cargo pockets have an extra layer of shell material to reinforce the lower half for longer wear life.
VELCRO® fastener is specially treated for flame resistance and attached with quadruple stitching at all primary closures.
The liner has darts in both the thermal and moisture barriers corresponding to the added length in the shell provided by the AXTION™ Knee. The liner has a reverse boot cut in the back and a concave cut in the front to keep the liner from hanging below the shell and is connected at the cuff with 2 snap tabs for security.
An access opening in the liner hidden under the front waistband allows you to check out the condition of the moisture barrier and thermal barrier when you need to.
High compression areas get added layers of your specified thermal liner material for greater conductive compressive heat resistance (CCHR). The extra layer in the liner knees adds padding for comfort.
Cuffs are reinforced with an extra layer of your choice of materials, double-stitched for extended wear.
We offer a wide choice of trim styles and materials to meet your visibility and identification requirements.
Patented system of abrasion resistant KEVLAR® cording protects the thread securing our reflective trim from abrasion. Lasts up to 20 times longer than conventional trim stitching so maintenance costs are lower and your gear is in service more often.
Suspenders attach to horizontal loops sewn to the top of the waistband so that there is no metal hardware to dig in to your waist or get caught up. H-Back design stays on your shoulder; ripcord hardware allows easy adjustment and quick release. Integral padded shoulder straps.
Pant legs are 1 inch shorter in the back to avoid premature cuff wear.
An adjustable belt and elasticized back make G-XTREME Pants fit like a pair of jeans – the suspenders are a preference, not a matter of necessity.
Available in a full range of patterns designed especially for the female firefighter.
