Fighting Fire with FR
Flame-Resistant Clothing for Ultimate Field Protection
When you’re in the heat of battle, you have to trust two things: your fellow soldiers and your gear. Milliken Military’s flame-resistant fabrics go into some of the most advanced military clothing on the planet, protecting our warfighters when they find themselves in some of the most life-threatening combat situations.
27P- Flame Resistant Flight Suit
As worn by all US Military aviators, this advanced flight suit is made with high-tech Nomex® fabric. As well as being flame resistant, the fabric for the 27P is designed to be lightweight, keeping personnel comfortable even under high-pressure midair conditions.

Military Boots with Flame Resistance Built-in
In combat, a warfighter’s boots are one of his most important pieces of gear. To better protect boots and feet in battle, we’ve helped create a liner that sits inside conventional boot construction and provides FR and thermal protection as well as a degree of stiffness to help boots keep their shape.

Aramid Flyer Shirt/Drawer
Today’s modern military aviator doesn’t just have his flight suit to protect him from the uncertain conditions of battle. The flame-resistant Aramid Flyer Shirt and Drawer combo is the perfect complement to the airman’s external gear, giving the wearer a thermal baselayer that insulates as well as protects with Nomex® fabric construction. But it wouldn’t be Milliken if it didn’t work even harder, providing excellent moisture management and comfort.

Aramid Stretch Baselayer
It's hard to stay comfortable when you’re wearing flame-resistant gear, but Milliken has changed all that. The Aramid knit baselayer is composed with a soft, super-stretch fabric that fits the wearer more closely, and won't bag, sag or stretch out of shape. It’s primary function is found in its Nomex® brand fiber, but it also features the Milliken brand of superior moisture management for excellent wicking and quick drying. And, as with many of our fabrics, Milliken’s own VisaEndurance® anti-microbial properties can be added as well.

Designed with the military aviator in mind, this flight suit is built with the same Nomex® fabric as the 27P Flight Suit, with extreme moisture-wicking capabilities and increased softness for comfort. It also features enhanced soil release and reduced pilling so it looks just like new even after months of heavy use.
