BAInstructor Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 What’s the opinion on Brage or Armadillo under your tunic for FBT? Is there anything better? Link to comment
Keith Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 For such a specialist question, you may need to give a bit more background to get the best reply. For most it will be what your Brigade / Service issue and for the majority it's probably your bog standard. Link to comment
BurtMacklin Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 faded red T-shirt has never done me wrong 🤣 Link to comment
Healdav Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I always wore a long sleeve old shirt. I found the scratching from the then uniform more than irritating. Link to comment
Becile Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Brigade issue , wicking t shirt. Link to comment
WTTJ Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Cotton t-shirt made in Bangladesh for us. Half peeled lettering, fading and chinagraph stains (from failing to check pockets properly pre wash) are seemingly mandatory but cannot confirm. We also have the option of a cotton jumper which I live in this time of year. Our BAIs have special two piece suits for under their kit. Link to comment
NickW Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 We (instructors) use Brage in the SFRS, the smoke tech trousers are really good extra insulation on the knee area, smoke tech jacket(more like a sweatshirt) is okay but the high neck stops you being able to do up your tunic fully, the flame tech long sleeve top with a issue t shirt is the best combination.Use these most days.
