Who It's For

This shirt is aimed at tradespeople who need certified flame resistance but prefer a shirt that looks less utilitarian and more like a casual western or Hawaiian style piece. Welders, fitters, ironworkers, electricians and other industrial workers will appreciate the NFPA2112 CAT II protection and rugged details like aramid thread and reinforced pockets.

Those who need lighter everyday shirts without FR properties, or who require different arc ratings or non-cotton blends for extreme heat environments, should look elsewhere. Also check sizing carefully because customers report mixed experiences with fit and some find it runs small.
