Lightning X Fireman Premium 3XL Firefighter Rescue Step-in Turnout Fire Gear Bag w/Shoulder Strap & Helmet Pocket

First of all: WOW. I pulled this bag out of the package and my jaw literally dropped. This bag is huge and so so nice. The zippers look pretty durable and they are easy to zip and unzip. I could probably fit 2 sets of gear in this bag if I wanted to - for reference I am 5’4” and my gear doesn’t take up a whole lot of space. There is plenty of space in this bag, and I love that there’s a shoulder strap for easy carrying. There are extra zipper pockets as well, giving EVEN MORE space to store items. I wasn’t expecting such a high quality bag, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I will be recommending this bag to any firefighter who will listen! Love love love it!

Very tough and fit all gear

Plenty of room. Should work well for those that change stations often.

Love it fits a full set of gear and whatever else u need

Everywhere I go people ask where I got this bag. Hold structure and wildland ppe. Almost wished it had wheels.

So your looking for a gear bag to haul all your crap around? Unsure what size you may need? Well stay tuned and continue to read as I’ll try to keep it short and to the point! I’ve talked about it for years getting a gear bag but never had until our department had to implement mandatory overtime and moving around the county to other stations became cumbersome carring all my crap. We are dual role FIRE/EMS. So I wanted something to carry at a minimum my primary stuff. Came across this bag and it looked decent and figured I’d give it a try ,originally was going to get the smaller version of this bag but ended up with this one. Average size guy 5’10 under 200lbs. I can fit my primary structure gear being the structure boots, pants, jacket, helmet and SCBA mask and brush gear with helmet. A added bonus is I had enough room to place my secondary set of turn out gear in the bag! Which was unexpected and nice considering if we catch a job and I was not at home station I’d either have to deal with wet dirty gear or worse stuck as medical! So as far as quality of bag appears to be well built but is it really firefighter tough? Time will tell, the zippers I feel could be better but I could be wrong. I’ll try to make updates as time goes on with the durability and such. Hope this will help in your decision making. I’m glad I bought it this far.

Very big, fits all my gear, the big pouch on the front(or back depending on how you carry your bag) broke after a few months of having it. Don’t pack it too tight in that pouch and don’t drag the bag on the floor.I’m a pretty big girl(muscular) and I’m 5’8. The first day I used this bag for bringing my gear to the academy, stay with me now, it threw me. In the bags defense I tried to run, but I mean... IT THREW ME!! I stepped forward and I lost my balance so I stepped back and the bag went forward and it just... it threw me across the room.... it was a very traumatizing moment in my life, but a few juice boxes and a bag of chips later I was okay and went back to my training:)

Bought this for my son who is in academy. The department did not have enough gear bags for all the trainees and this is just like the loaners issued by the department. There are some negative reviews, but as long as this bag gets him through academy, the cost will be worth it. The bag arrived in good condition and is huge! He is now able to get just about everything into this bag as opposed to the three bags he had been carrying. He’s happy with it, so I’m happy with it.*UPDATE* Son has been using this gear bag for close to three years now and it is still in great condition with hardly any visible signs of wear. Definitely recommend this.
