Lightning X Fireman's Value Edition XL Firefighter Step-in Turnout Gear Bag w/Wheels, Helmet Pocket and Custom Embroidered Name - BLACK

The Nomex and Kevlar in your turnout gear is highly sensitive to the sun. In fact, ultra-violet rays break down the very material that makes the fabric fire resistant in the first place. Keeping your gear clean and storing it in a turnout bag are the two most important factors for extending the life of your department's investment.

Lightning X gear bags help protect and extend the life of your turnout gear by protecting the fibers from the detrimental effects of UV rays, in addition to shielding from the elements and providing a convenient way to store and carry your gear, This is especially crucial for volunteer firefighters who typically carry their gear with them in their POV!

We read your reviews and are constantly making improvements to make our bags better. 25+ years in the bag business have taught us what works and what doesn't. But the fire service is constantly evolving, and your feedback provides us valuable insight on how we can make better, stronger products. Some things like stitching and fabric denier you may never notice, but others are very visible. Here are a few things that we've recently improved upon for our LXFB10WV gear bags.

• Extra large, heavy-duty Vislon nylon zipper teeth. Metal coil zippers get bent easily, and also collect dirty and grim, causing premature failure. Our zippers actually break in and improve over time (Pro Tip: apply a coating of lip balm to the zipper teeth before first use for effortless zipper glide)
• Our newly improved PVC reinforced bottom wraps around the lower portion of the bag, and provides important protection against wear and tear
• Yellow-silver triple trim reflective tape on both sides of the bag keeps you visible day and night, and is reinforced with leather binding to prevent curling on the edges of the reflective webbing
• New M.O.L.L.E. patch on top of the bag allows for an added embroidered name patch, or can be used to store tools and apply morale patches in lieu of a customized name patch
• Our FIRE DEPT maltese cross logo is custom embroidered with over 30,000 stitches. Similar bags are screen printed, which cracks and breaks off over time, if they have a logo at all
• The FB10WV now includes hi-vis fluorescent and reflective double zipper pulls on all compartments, large enough to be opened and closed with a gloved hand

Lightning X Products has been improving the design of this bag for nearly 25 years. Through voice of the customer feedback the LXFB10WV has been designed from the inside out by firemen like you. Now with top opening for step-in access to gear, thicker nylon and heavy-duty reflective zipper pulls! Lightning X Products took your suggestions and redesigned their value rolling gear bag from the ground up to make it more user-friendly and affordable in this tough economy. The FB10W is designed like a traditional turnout gear bag with the addition of wheels, skid pads and a rigid base to prevent “sagging”.It’s large enough to hold all of your turnout gear, helmet, SCBA mask, jumpsuit and other items all while being tough enough to withstand the wear and tear that firemen are known to inflict on their gear. The FB10 has multiple pockets and compartments to keep your gear organized. It’s large, it’s rugged, and it’s reflective all-over.

FEATURES INCLUDE:

• Made of heavy-duty water resistant nylon
• New triple trim reflective striping and hi-vis zipper pulls
• Extra large zippers for long lasting durability, now in fluorescent yellow
• Helmet compartment will accommodate traditional style fire helmets
