The Filter Suit is a lightweight, permeable overall worn over other clothing and cinched down with disposable adhesive straps.

Its sole purpose it to protect the wearer from toxic airborne chemicals (usually military incapacitation agents that could be absorbed through the skin) for a limited time. Normally worn in combination with a compatible respirator, the suit porous enough to prevent excessive body heat buildup, eliminating the need for cumbersome life support system. The limitations are less than 100% effective and a short useful lifespan.
