LION INTRODUCES VERSAFLEX™ RESCUE WEAR FROM STARFIELD: INNOVATIVE, DUAL-CERTIFIED PROTECTION FOR FIRST RESPONDERS
Gearing Up for Technical Rescue and Wildland Calls
Firefighting is a demanding profession that requires agility, strength, and resilience. For technical rescue and wildland calls, the right gear can make all the difference. While traditional bunker gear is essential for structural firefighting, it can be cumbersome and restrictive for other operations. VersaFlex® offers a specialized solution tailored to these unique challenges.
The Limitations of Standard Bunker Gear
Standard bunker gear is designed for the intense heat and conditions of structural fires. It's perfect for those scenarios but can be heavy and restrictive during technical rescues and wildland firefighting. These operations demand lightweight, breathable, and highly mobile gear to cope with extended periods of activity and diverse terrains.
Enter VersaFlex: A Game-Changing Garment
VersaFlex is the answer to the specific needs of technical rescue and wildland firefighting. We’ve incorporated key elements from our industry-leading V-Force® bunker gear into this innovative design, creating a garment that stands out for several reasons:
Superior Protection and Comfort
VersaFlex offers superior protection compared to a station uniform while being more comfortable than structural turnouts. Its breathable fabric helps regulate body temperature, reducing the risk of heat exhaustion during prolonged missions.
Unrestricted Movement
The raglan sleeves of VersaFlex promote unrestricted movement and reduce coat rise, allowing firefighters to maneuver freely. This design is crucial when navigating tight spaces or performing technical rescues.
Natural Arm and Leg Movements
VersaFlex features V-Fit™ Elbows and Knees with cutouts and shaped pieces for natural arm and leg movements without bulk. These contoured elements, crafted with water- and fire-resistant Lite-N-Dri™ padding, offer exceptional resilience and cushioning.
Extra Flexibility
The Move-N-Hance™ crotch design provides extra room and flexibility, reinforcing seams to minimize the risk of tears. This feature is particularly beneficial during technical rescues, where flexibility and durability are paramount.
Ready for Any Challenge
With VersaFlex, firefighters get unmatched protection, comfort, and durability, ensuring they're ready for any challenge. Whether scaling a cliff for a rescue or battling a wildfire, VersaFlex equips firefighters with the agility and resilience they need.
Choosing the right gear significantly impacts a firefighter’s performance and safety. While standard bunker gear is indispensable for structural fires, technical rescue and wildland calls demand a different approach. VersaFlex offers superior protection, enhanced mobility, and exceptional comfort, making it the ultimate choice for these operations. Embrace the future of firefighting gear with VersaFlex and experience the difference it makes on the front lines. Brought to you by Starfield LION. Only available in Canada.
