ABSTRACT:
A harness strap assembly is incorporated into the inner liner of the pants of a firefighter's turnout suit. The harness strap assembly comprises a single length of webbed strap (or, preferably, a securely interconnected bifurcated length) that is wound forward around the user's waist through waist belt loops; then down through loops at the crotch of the pant liner; thence back around under the user's buttocks; then through loops on both thigh sides of the liner; and finally back forward to the fly area of the liner. Adjacent to the fly, the crotch portions of the strap pass through a pair of carabineer loops, which loops are not stitched or otherwise affixed to the liner. Instead, looped ends of the harness strap hold the two carabineer loops. The carabineer loops, in turn, are interlinked with a metal climber's carabineer of conventional design.
