Up In Smoke Zestos Apex FR Welding Shirt - Navy - Clearance 4XL Only

Up In Smoke Zestos Apex FR Welding Shirt- Navy

The Apex line was created because we knew that we could build on the already strong foundation of our welding gear. Now that we have done that, we have created the Apex Predator of welding apparel. What sets this newest model of the FR Zestos work shirt apart from its predecessor is the new material application called EPIC Technology from Nextec. Nextec places a silicone barrier “inside” the fabric at the final stage of fabric finishing. The silicone polymers saturate the fabric, and from there the silicone only sticks to silicone. In doing so, each individual fiber bundle is encapsulated. The silicone also fills and sets within the spaces of warp and fill yarns (see a 2000 time zoomed photo in the gallery above).

Why is this so important

• EPIC is key in shedding sparks and molten metals
• Maintains a high percentage of breathability
• Higher abrasion resistance
• Longer color retention
• Improved after-wash appearance
• Not as easily soiled
• Wind resistant
• Water resistant
• Fast drying
• EPIC will always pack dry!

The FR Zestos is so well-made you can wear it working, or at the pub with friends. Versatility and performance go hand-in-hand with our welding apparel – especially with our FR Zestos work shirt.
