Hoods
H41 INTERCEPTOR with DuPont™Nomex® Nano Flex
With the power of DuPont Nomex Nano Flex particulate-blocking technology laminated between two layers of 6.0oz PBI/Lenzing (20%/80%), FireDex’s H41 Interceptor Hood boasts superior situational awareness while reducing firefighter’s exposure to harmful fire ground carcinogens. Offering the closest fit to a classic knit hood, the H41 Interceptor provides extreme comfort and durability while maintaining excellent breathability.
- Certified to NFPA 1971
- Available in two styles: Total Coverage and Zone Coverage
TOTAL COVERAGE
Our total coverage option satisfies more than the minimum NFPA requirement by carrying the particulate hood blocking technology throughout the entire hood including the neck, ears, jawline, side, and top of the head, as well as the SCBA interface and bib.
ZONE COVERAGE
For those seeking great protection at a lower price point, we offer a zone coverage option that focuses primarily on the high-permeable areas of your skin, around your face and neck. This hood design meets the NFPA standard for a minimum area of coverage.
H41 Interceptor with Stedair® Prevent
Made with Stedair® PREVENT, the H41 Interceptor Hood is built for durability and blocks 99.9% of persistent fire ground carcinogens, even after 100 washes.
The H41 Interceptor hood with Stedair® PREVENT features barrier technology that is carried throughout the entire hood including the neck, ears, jawline, side and top of the head, as well as the SCBA interface and bib.
This 2-layer particulate blocking hood features an outer layer of 8oz Nomex®/Lenzing (20%/80%) and an inner layer of Stedair® PREVENT.

Designed to be one-size-fits-all, this predominantly Spentex® hood combines comfort, thermal defense, breathability, and extended durability. Each hood features an elastic face opening to ensure proper interfacing with any SCBA mask and an extended bib for added protection.

FXR CUSTOM TURNOUTS
FXR turnouts are specifically designed to minimize firefighter stress and fatigue through Active Posture Design™, allowing for a full range of motion - especially while wearing your SCBA!
- Certified to NFPA1971
- OmniDex™ Shoulder - Eliminates coat rise and sleeve retraction by moving the shoulder seam to the natural bending point.
- OmniDex™ Shoulder Interface with SCBA - Designed to work in conjunction with your SCBA - no material bunching under or around SCBA straps, preventing “shoulder-lifting” your air pack when reaching or crawling.
- Seamless Collar - Comfort and NFPA compliant protection without the need for a throat tab.
- DexFlex™ Elbows - Added pleats bend the sleeve to the natural shape of the arm, providing less restriction in movement.
- Allows for Shorter Coat Length - With the dramatic reduction in coat rise, wearers can safely opt for a shorter coat which eliminates the restriction on upper legs (30” coat shown). Reduced coat length also means less fabric and therefore less weight.
- Athletic Cut Design - Provides natural movement and comfort in a forward firefighting position.
- Comfort Inseam - Replaces the standard 4-way seam in the crotch with a seamless gusset to reduce bulk and wear & tear.
- DexFlex™ Knees - Move freely and reduce resistance with naturally-bent knees.

FDXL200
Built to keep you energized during long 24 hour days, the FDXL200 Firefighting Boot outperforms standards with a combination of technologies and materials that make it the best choice for slip resistance, flame resistance, liquid and bacterial protection, comfort, and durability.
This boot will have you feeling light on your toes but strong on your feet with the flexibility that's reminiscent of your running shoes.
Our FDXL200 Red Leather Structural Firefighting Boot was thoughtfully designed with barrier protection to fight against hazardous liquid splashes and ribbing that limits ride-up and maintains a seal with any leg dam, including those containing particulate barriers.
Unlike traditional sewn-on straps, the FDXL200 is built with heavy-duty integrated handles that never break or pull off when donning your gear. The integrated handle design reduces bulk and never interferes when you’re climbing, crawling, or lifting on the job. You’ll never want to wear a different pair of boots again.
