Floor Polo and Floor Trouser. The barrel leg bends easily in the fitting concept and the phone zip is angled away from the lap.
Floor and crowd ADs
Call cues, reposition background and relay updates while crossing between holding and set. Radio controls must stay reachable with one hand.
Comms Holster plus Air Trouser. Try the holster on both hips, including a fast sit and stand at video village.
Choose shorts for controlled low-risk zones only. Follow location visibility rules when moving crowds around traffic.

Quiet Shirt with underarm ease and close cuffs. Record actual arm lifts, turns and fabric rub next to the boom, against a soft reference shirt.
Mixer and radio mic crew
Switch between sitting at the cart, wearing a sound bag and fitting microphones to cast. Pocket noise and stacked belts can get in the way.
Floor Trouser or Air Trouser and compact Waist Pack only where it clears the sound harness. Use a liner or dedicated case for sensitive items.

Standard Issue Tee, Air Trouser or Heat Short for cleared low-risk base wear. Try reach and deep squat with no loose pocket load.
Active specialist work
Harnesses, stunt protection, fire, water, vehicles and other specialist hazards each have different equipment requirements.
Use gear selected by the relevant coordinator or safety lead for the sequence. Build no TAKE ONE protective system into this range.
Clear actual rehearsal and sequence attire with the specialist lead. Dark matte pieces never override high-visibility or other protective requirements.
