Military FR Clothing and Performance Wear

Being in the military has never been, in times of war or peace, a static or predictable place. As a result of the Transformation Initiative, U.S. military personnel are more mobile than ever before. While this has enhanced force agility, mechanized mobility has increased the risk of exposure to flame and flash fire. The recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq have also highlighted the need for both performance garments and for protection against flame and flash fire. DRIFIRE is the first and currently remains the only Performance FR garment, providing you the Flame Resistance that you need, while giving you the Moisture Management and Comfort you deserve.

MOISTURE MANAGEMENT. Using the proven, superior Moisture Management provided by Dri-release® (U.S. Patent #5,888,914), DRIFIRE is the next generation of performance wear, providing the optimum balance of moisture-wicking and fast-drying.

DRIFIRE dries 4x faster than cotton
Cotton holds in moisture which can increase the changes of steam burns and slows the body's ability to cool itself, even after the removal of gear
DRIFIRE acts like an evaporative cooling system, drawing moisture away from the skin and dispersing it (like an airconditioning unit)
Keeps the wearer cool and dry in extreme heat, helping to thermo-regulate the body's core temperature, reducing heat exhaustion and heat stroke
Keeps the wearer warm and dry in extreme cold helping to preven
