Firefighters have been using hoses since 16th century. It is proved that the first hose was made of leather. The shape of it was secured with rivets. Another development attempt was to make a seamed hose. The first form similar to today's "classic" fire hose extends to 17th century, where the hose used was handmade from hemp. Disadvantage was that the tightness of hose was reached only when it was in use. In the second half of the 19th century the hoses with rubber insert were used. In the 20th century synthetic fibers began to be used in the manufacture of fire hoses.
