It was a record breaking year at FDIC last week with almost 30,000 visitors attending the exhibits and classrooms. Garnering buzz at the LION booth was our latest V-Force® turnout with an updated Glide™ thermal liner and the new PBI Max™ outer shell.  Together this combination offers game-changing comfort and strength. Many attendees were eager to try on a set of gear and experience not only the ease of donning and doffing, but also the flexibility in movement that the V-Force brings to the fire service.

Always on the cutting-edge, V-Force is the first turnout model to incorporate Glide liners and PBI Max outer shells.

Glide is the only liner system that features a face cloth with 60% Kevlar® filament. The low friction properties of Glide means added freedom of movement and less working stress for a more comfortable feel in your turnout gear.

The PBI Max outer shell offers fire fighters the best combination of break open and thermal protection, the strongest outer shell fabric in the world and the most flexible and comfortable outer shell fabric the fire service has ever seen.
