Abstract
A sleeve for padding a hazardous-duty garment strap, such as a firefighting suspender shoulder strap, or for padding a hazardous-duty pack strap, includes an elongated inner strip of padding material, an outer layer of heat and flame resistant material substantially surrounding the inner padding strip, and a central passage shaped to slidably receive the strap of the garment or pack strap therethrough. In a preferred embodiment, the padding is made of heat and flame resistant closed cell foam material, and the outer layer is made of an aramid material.
