Each grand prize winner will take home x5 sets of our Structural Gear in black or gold, featuring Milliken's highly anticipated non-PFAS fabric to experience the latest advancements in health and wellness. Part of our Maximum Mobility™ design, your structural gear sets ensure comfort across all layers. With features like double-layer extra-deep sleeve wells and anatomical patterning, you will experience unrestricted movement and superior flexibility throughout your shift.
Each grand prize winner will take home x5 sets of our dual NFPA 1951 Level II and NFPA 1999 certified gear. A revolutionary combination of robust outer shell offering abrasion and flame resistance, crucial for non-entry operations, with a powerful moisture barrier providing bloodborne pathogen and limited chemical protection. Available in black, Navy, or Tan.
Each structural gear set will come with a Survivor® X USB Flashlight from Steamlight®. The Survivor® X USB Flashlight features a low-profile bezel that doesn’t interfere with gear and equipment and provides three lighting modes. The clip securely grabs onto gear, and the D-ring allows your light to hang forward for hands-free use.
Grand Prize winners will receive two tickets to Schwarber's Block Party on 6/19 at Yards Brewing in Philadelphia, PA. Join us from 6:30 - 9:30 PM for a celebration like no other, hosted by none other than Phillies "Slugger," Kyle Schwarber himself.
