Wildland firefighting gear is specially designed to protect firefighters from the intense heat and hazardous conditions they face in wildfires. This gear typically includes flame-resistant clothing, such as Nomex or Kevlar shirts and pants, which are lightweight yet durable. Firefighters also wear sturdy leather boots with heat-resistant soles to navigate rough, burning terrain. Helmets with face shields and neck shrouds provide head and face protection, while goggles safeguard their eyes from smoke and debris. Additional gear includes fire shelters for emergencies, gloves, and hydration packs to ensure firefighters remain safe and effective in the field.
