A fire and chemical resistant coverall suitable for use by fire investigators. The coveralls are preferably made of a three-layer laminate. The outer layer is heat and moisture resistant. The middle layer provides additional thermal protection. The inner layer—which will lie next to the wearer's skin in some regions—is selected for its tactile properties. The coverall is sized to fit loosely over a law enforcement officer's normal uniform. It includes a loose-fitting waist section in order to provide clearance for an officer's utility belt and firearm. A firearm access port is located on the waist, proximate where a hip holster is worn. This port allows the wearer to reach through the coverall and retrieve a firearm stored in a holster on a utility belt. The firearm port is covered by a protective flap which ordinarily remains closed. |
