The new FFPS has a khaki-based colour and has added functions, such as better protection from extreme heat and environmental conditions, as well as increased visibility in low light conditions.

Additionally, the FFPS has an improved fit that provides better range of motion due to its lightweight and stretchable outer shell.
It also has highly breathable fabric layers that reduces heat stress, improved flame protection to enhance safety, and increased abrasion resistance to enhance durability.
