Both in peacekeeping missions and active combat duty, military personnel must be able to perform. DRIFIRE flame resistant (FR) clothing helps the men and women overseas remain dry and safe in a number of ways:

1) With top-flight flame resistance. DRIFIRE flame resistant clothes (FR pants) are made of synthetic fibers that not only resist sparks and flash flame, but also have flame extinguishing properties. This helps ensure that military personnel are safer, since their line of work often involves exposure to high temperatures and flame hazards.

2) With strong fibers. In tests, DRIFIRE flame resistant uniforms was shown to tear less under duress than cotton fibers. In fact, some military personnel testing the clothing noted that the clothes even stood up to barbed wire during a ground drill. Strong fibers are essential in the military, since FR clothing can’t protect you if it’s torn or shredded.

3) With no-melt fabric. DRIFIRE flame resistant shirts do not melt or fuse to the skin during high heat. In combat situations, this is key, since this property alone can help prevent complications. If someone is severely injured or sustains a shrapnel wound, for example, no-melt, no-fuse fabric can mean a wound that is simpler to treat out in the field.

4) With lightweight fabric. Most military personnel carry many pounds of gear in combat. Each additional pound adds to fatigue and aching muscles. At DRIFIRE, we have made our FR clothing light and comfortable as cotton, so that no extra lugging is needed to carry these clothes.

5) With comfort. The team at DRIFIRE believes that military personnel already have a difficult job. That’s why we try to make that job a little easier with FR apparel that is as comfortable to wear as any cotton fabric. With light fabric, comfortable designs and even ingenious seams that don’t chafe, even after hours of wear, our FR clothing is designed to offer maximum comfort.

6) With moisture management. When military personnel are on the move, they tend to run, not walk. In addition, they tend to carry large packs of gear. That can add up to plenty of sweat, which is why DRIFIRE FR clothes are designed to wick away moisture fast. This helps keep active military personnel dry and comfortable and allows them to focus on their job, not on the discomfort of their clothes.

7) With odor management. Being in the military can mean living in close quarters, so clothing that controls odor is a great perk. DRIFIRE FR apparel has innovative moisture control as well as bacteria-neutralizing properties that help keep odor under control.

Many military personnel also appreciate the fact that DRIFIRE FR apparel is US-made. While they fight for our country, it provides them some comfort knowing that the clothes that protect them and keep them safer are from home and are supporting the war effort at home.
