Would these be good for wildland fire fighting?

The durability is excellent. The only problem I have is the black laces fade around my shins. So I just polish them black when I polish my boots.

I work in wildland fire and have 72" pair in my 12 inch boots and a 63" pair in my 10 inch boots and I love them. The first pair I bought in 2011 and still going strong, they do wear out the eyelets eventually but if you have good boots those can be replaced before the leather is damaged. I really like that I never have to worry about them breaking, I recommend them!

I work ina landfill and these laces have been in service for me since June of 2013. I've used them in the shop and they've seen slag from arc welding and grinder sparks too. These are the only laces I've bought so far that I've felt weren't a rip-off.

Yes these should work great for you , my sons has glasses and uses them all the time hunting.

Haha apparently they are because there are warning tags and stickers all over them... i work with a fire dept, but we are never ever near flame close enough that it matters. I wear them on the ambulance every day, they are really comfortable. If you are wearing them in a job that puts you close to open flame i wouldn't buy them, if not, you'll be fine.

Yes. You'd fare well using spikes suitable to the terrain; the larger spikes are good for stability in rugged conditions.

I'm using them for putting wood in my woodstove and they work very well for that. They are rugged and very heat resistant. They will most likely last for many years.

They're well insulated....I use them to feed the fire in my wood burning stove. I imagine they would be fine in steam,at least for a short period of time. They are probably not designed for long exposure to moisture.

Absolutely. These are the most durable and comfortable Kevlar gloves I've ever owned. However u wouldn't recommend them.for bike riding. If you choose to it will work however I would recommend a glove that would breathe such as weight lifting gloves that are fingerless, ventilated, and padded better for bike riding.

Yes. They would be fine for this but I would recommend wearing long socks for a cushion. They are quite comfortable but for hiking they may tend to chafe a bit. I have worn them all day doing work in the yard with no problems but I was glad to take them off at the end of the day.

I don't see why not. I've only used them for snowboarding, but it think it was meant for like dirt bike riding lol. I would use them in hot areas. I don't see how it would damage it

I've taken them fishing with me where I've done a lot of walking over pretty rough terrain and had no problem. Don't ride motorcycles so I don't know but I think they'd be just fine. They're ruggedly built although you might want to tape the lens covers down while travelling.

I haven't tried them for trail running. I fish a lot from shore and tried them on slippery rocks, they worked fine but didn't hold the abuse. the chain broke away from the rubber holes. I don't recommend them if you're going to put them under a lot of stress. they might work just fine to walk from house to car or from parking lot to store.

Yes, the information booklet I received mentioned they were good for backpacking. The packets serve about two meals. I have been cooking with them for a few weeks, but have not used them over a fire. They do have individual purchases rather than an entire set if you are looking for something more specific. Hope this helps.

They are definitely heavy enough to use over a fire but there is a drawback. The clip on handles will melt if subjected to too much direct heat. In using them on my gas cooktop in my RV I once used too high of a flame and started getting damage to the bottom edge of the handle next to the side of the pan. Lesson learned. Also, they are an awfully nice pan to subject them to the blackening etc. you get with campfire cooking. I carry a couple of smaller good old fashioned cast iron skillets and dutch oven in the basement of the RV for campfire cooking.

My opinion would be good. I got them for the gun range and they cut out most of the noise. Also very comfortable for long periods of use.

They would work great! We have several pairs and carry one camping with us...it cuts practically anything!

Honestly I mean I guess it would depend what you were doing in them. I run in them and love them and they have awesome sound. Now would I use them during my martial arts and stuff? Not likely but if you wanna run I don't think I have ever had a pair of s11's fall off so I would recommend and I'm not running usually on just flat ground it could be any terrain so I hope that helps ya out.

I really think in an emergency situation you could use them over a fire, but I would use a regular stove or hot plate maybe even a propane burner.
