Firefighter Base Layers Built for Protection, Comfort & Performance
When every second counts, your gear should support—not slow—you down. That starts with what you wear closest to your skin. Our Base Layers selection is engineered for maximum comfort, moisture control, durability, and NFPA-minded safety. Whether you’re responding to a call, working a long shift at the station, or training in variable conditions, base layers are a critical first line of defense.
These garments are designed for first responders who need to stay cool under pressure, dry during high activity, and protected in high-risk environments.
NFPA-Minded Construction for Enhanced Safety
Firefighters know that protection starts from the inside out. That’s why many of our base layer products are built with NFPA 1975 or NFPA 2112-minded construction, incorporating flame-resistant (FR) materials that minimize risk during routine station wear or unexpected exposure to heat and flame.
Our base layers support department-wide PPE programs and give firefighters added peace of mind—without sacrificing comfort or mobility.
Key safety features include:
- Inherent flame-resistant fabrics (no wash-out over time)
- Low-melt or non-melt synthetic blends
- Flatlock seams to reduce chafing under turnout gear
- Moisture-wicking technology to keep skin dry and reduce heat stress
Durability That Holds Up to the Job
Base layers need to withstand the same demanding conditions as your outerwear. That’s why our selection includes high-performance fabrics that resist wear, retain their shape, and maintain comfort through repeated use and washing. These garments won’t shrink, stretch, or lose their FR protection after multiple cycles—ensuring they remain reliable shift after shift.
Many options also offer anti-odor properties, enhanced ventilation panels, and stretch-fit construction for maximum comfort under gear.
