Rappel Gloves
Outstanding hand protection meets dexterity in our Rappel Gloves. Wear them to tie knots and work with hardware, set up a system or to rappel. Pittard’s Armor-Tan leather and unique Kevlar® brand fiber stitching combine for unparalleled durability. A double layer at the thumb web protects hands when rappelling, and the wear-resistant double palm guards against heat, moisture, cold, and abrasion. Its second anatomically segmented layer eases grip fatigue. The back is equally detailed: spandex ventilates and delivers flexibility and comfort, while elastic at the wrist provides a secure fit. When not in use, these gloves can hang on harness gear loops using the carabiner loops sewn into the wrist. Space on the label allows for user’s name or initials.
Alta Superflex Knee Pads
Because emergency workers spend an inordinate amount of time working on their knees—this is particularly true of heavy rescue operations, confined space entries, or tactical responses— Alta Superflex Knee Pads are a must-have. Lightweight but with a full 1/2 inch of foam padding, they reduce stress and fatigue to the knees, allowing you to work longer and more effectively. The rubber caps grip the surface to prevent sliding, and a unique, easy-to-use buckle fastening system allows a comfortable fit that minimizes interference with circulation to the lower legs.
Rigtech Pack
Stay light, fast and ultra organized with the innovative RigTech Pack. The pack was designed to fulfill ongoing requests from rescue teams around the country in need of a specialized solution for keeping their rigging equipment in order and securely loaded when in the field. The full-featured backpack delivers uncompromised comfort, stability and organization for backcountry and urban rescue and REM teams as well as rope access technicians.
Cirque Fanny Packs
The Cirque Patrol Fanny Packs are made for those patrollers who like to go light and fast! These packs maximize the carrying capacity by having pockets intelligently placed, as well as by having features such as our double-loop elastic, allowing you to carry roll-items or other small supplies on top of each other.
Large pockets have been added on the hip-belt of the Cirque packs, which can store many smaller items and are easily accessible.
