The "Breathable" Solution for Turnout Gear Storage The Evac Systems Firefighter Turnout Gear Pack (Model EP220) is engineered to solve the two biggest problems with gear storage: lack of space and "stink." Unlike standard vinyl bags that trap moisture and promote mildew, this pack features a massive mesh ventilation window that allows air to circulate through the bag, helping damp bunkers dry out between shifts while keeping them protected from UV light and station dust.
Key Features
- Active Airflow Design: The integrated heavy-duty mesh window ensures continuous air exchange, reducing the risk of mold growth and "locker room smell" that destroys expensive thermal liners.
- Massive Volume: Designed as one of the most spacious packs on the market, it easily swallows a complete set of structural gear—including coat, pants, helmet, boots, and SCBA mask—without crushing the materials.
- Rugged Durability: Constructed from 1,000 Denier Cordura® Nylon, this bag withstands the abrasion of concrete bay floors and truck bed liners, far outlasting cheap polyester alternatives.
- Integrated Organization: Features a specialized internal glove pocket to keep structural gloves or hoods separate from dirty boots, ensuring small items don't get lost in the bottom of the bag.
Why It Matters Your turnout gear is your life support. Storing it wet in a sealed bag degrades the fabric and risks steam burns on the next fire. This pack protects your investment ($3,000+ per set) by allowing it to breathe, extending the service life of the gear while keeping it ready for the next alarm.
How to Use
- Pack: Place boots at the bottom, followed by pants and coat.
- Organize: Stash gloves and hood in the internal pocket.
- Ventilate: The mesh window automatically allows moisture to escape during storage.
- Transport: Use the heavy-duty web handles to carry the bag to the rig or personal vehicle.
Technical Overview The bag is reinforced with extra-heavy webbing to support the weight of wet gear. It is available in Red, Blue, and Pink to match crew assignments or personal preference.
