SUPER-DELUXE DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

freedom
Bellows Underarm Construction
Reduces coat hem rise and sleeve travel
Underarm bellows keep your protective envelope intact
by reducing hem rise and sleeve travel. Football-shaped
bellows are located in the armpits of the coat between
the shoulder seam and torso on all three layers (outer
shell, moisture barrier and thermal barrier). When you
reach forward or overhead, the bellows expand. The
expansion keeps other parts of the coat, such as the
sleeve and body, from traveling and creating exposure.
FREEDOM KNEE
Provides greater bent knee mobility and comfort
The Freedom Knee enables a natural flexing motion.
It provides a gusset that the knee can fall into when
crawling, climbing, bending and kneeling. For added
®
thermal protection, a layer of Lite-N-Dri™ cushioning
is sewn into the liner at the knee. Another layer of Lite-
N-Dri is included between the outer shell and the knee
reinforcement. This also provides additional comfort
when kneeling or crawling.
freedom elbow
Provides increased arm flexibility
The Freedom Elbow enables you to bend your arm freely
and comfortably while keeping your wrists protected.
It works in a similar fashion to the bellows underarm
construction. A football-shaped insert is set at the back
of the elbow. When your arm flexes, the insert expands to
eliminate tugging at the sleeve or shoulder.
