Combining premium waterproof-breathable protection with a rugged design, it’s engineered for maximum performance and long-term durability in swiftwater and flood rescue environments.
Key Features:
-
Top-Tier Waterproof Protection:
Constructed with 3-layer GORE-TEX® Pro fabric for industry-leading waterproof, windproof, and breathable performance, ensuring comfort and protection in the harshest conditions. -
Eco-Conscious Construction:
Built with 100% recycled nylon face fabric and dope-dyed backer material to reduce water consumption, energy use, and pollution. Features a lower-impact DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish for improved environmental responsibility. -
Streamlined Front Entry:
YKK® Aquaseal™ front-entry zipper with a protective flap allows easy donning and doffing while maintaining a watertight seal. -
Reinforced for Rescue:
Durable armor fabric at the knees, seat, elbows, and inner ankles resists abrasion in high-wear zones. Added padding in the elbows and knees for enhanced protection during technical rescues. -
Comfortable Seals:
Cinchable neoprene neck and wrist seals provide a reliable barrier with less restriction than latex, offering a nearly watertight seal without compromising comfort. -
Secure Fit & Functional Design:
Adjustable ladder-lock shoulder straps and a double-pull waist system ensure a snug, custom fit. The gathered ankle design includes silicone grip dots to prevent ride-up and fits securely over boots. -
Enhanced Visibility & Identification:
SOLAS reflective tape improves visibility in low-light scenarios. Hook-and-loop shoulder patches accommodate department or agency badges for clear identification. -
Professional Essentials Built In:
Includes GORE-TEX Pro fabric socks, a relief zipper for convenience, and a functional cargo pocket for storing essentials. Compatible with NRS Rescue Placards, which attach via hook-and-loop for easy interchange between team members or equipment.
