Garment, such as turnout coat or coverall for firefighter, with combined

A firefighter's coat which has a body section and a pair of sleeve sections. Each of the sleeve sections when attached to the body section has an upper portion provided with a given length dimension and a lower portion provided with a length dimension greater than the given length dimension of the upper portion of the sleeve section. Therefore, the arms of the firefighter who wears the firefighter's coat can be freely moved as the sleeve sections are moved without appreciable strain between the sleeve sections and the body section and without significant responsive movement of the body section of the firefighter's coat. Therefore, stress upon the firefighter as a result of arm movement is minimal.

Firefighter's coat providing freedom of arm movement

A firefighter's trousers of the type constructed of firefighting protective material. The firefighter's trousers have a torso section and a pair of leg sections. The torso section and the leg sections are joined by one or more panels which form a crotch region in the firefighter's trousers. Therefore, there is no conventional center seam in the crotch region, and the life of the firefighter's trousers is enhanced. Also, during leg movement of the firefighter who wears the firefighter's trousers there is no strain between the leg sections and the torso section. Therefore, the firefighter's trousers of the invention minimize the stress upon the firefighter and the comfort in the wearing of the firefighter's trousers is enhanced.
