REGULAR SIZE: Meant to fit individuals up to 5’-7” in height with a girth (largest area of the circumference of the body) of less than 53”. Individuals between 5’-7” and 6’-1” and less than 53” in girth may carry either size as they deem appropriate. In trials using fans to simulate wind, firefighters shorter than 5’-7” had difficulty deploying and holding down the large fire shelter. Firefighters who are shorter than 5’-7”, but whose girth is larger than 53” should practice with the large practice shelter in a strong wind before deciding whether to carry a large shelter on the fireline.
LARGE SIZE: designed for firefighters whose height or girth prevents them from fitting easily inside the regular shelter. Any firefighter taller than 6’-1” should also carry the large shelter. Any firefighter whose girth is larger than 53 inches at any point also should carry the large shelter. Individuals between 5’-7” and 6’-1” and less than 53” in girth may carry either size as they deem appropriate.
