Despite the changes we have made, would you believe that PPE hasn’t been changed in 30 years? It continues to be governed by antiquated rules that no longer best serve what we need today. In this episode, Korena Hallam and Summer Hurd from Green Buffalow dive deep into the changes we need to see, especially when it comes to the different needs between men and women in the field. They explain the complex and technical nature of creating a wildland firefighting PPE that fits and performs WAY better. Plus, they let us in on what it’s like starting a small business, how they’ve grown it, and what lessons they learned along the way. Korena and Summer are definitely changing the one-size-fits-all game of wildland firefighting PPE. Tune in now to learn how they are making headways despite it all.
