Maximum Capacity Storage for Oversized Fire Gear When standard bags fall short, the R&B Fabrications Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag delivers the critical extra volume needed for modern structural firefighting ensembles. Engineered with 25% more storage space than the original model, this oversized duffel comfortably houses taller boots, bulkier coats, and helmets with shields, ensuring your gear is never crammed or compromised.

Key Features

  • Massive 5,200 cu. in. Volume: Expanded dimensions (24" L x 16" H x 13.5" W) provide ample room for full turnout gear plus extra layers or bailout kits.
  • Rapid Identification: Features a top-mounted clear window ID slot (or front pocket on select models) for instant ownership verification in crowded station lockers.
  • Industrial Durability: Constructed from heavy-duty Cordura® nylon to resist abrasion, tears, and the harsh environment of the fireground.
  • Reinforced Transport: Supports heavy loads with robust webbing handles designed to withstand the weight of wet, soot-covered gear.
  • Versatile Options: Available with the classic Maltese Cross, EMS Star of Life, or plain designs to match department protocols.
  • Made in the USA: Built to professional standards for firefighters who demand reliability.

Why It Matters For firefighters with larger frame sizes or those carrying supplementary rescue tools, a standard bag can be a frustration. This XL version eliminates the struggle of forcing zippers closed. It provides the necessary "breathing room" for your PPE, reducing wear on fabrics and ensuring your gear is ready to deploy instantly.

How to Use Open the heavy-duty zipper fully to reveal the cavernous main compartment. Place boots at the bottom, followed by bunker pants and coat. The increased 16-inch height allows the helmet to sit comfortably on top without crushing the brim. Insert your name card or shift assignment into the clear ID window to prevent mix-ups at the scene or station.

Technical Overview This bag retains the rugged simplicity of the Original model but scales up the vertical clearance to 16 inches. The simple single-cavity design minimizes failure points, while the Cordura fabric offers water and mildew resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the R&B Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag offer 25% more storage than standard gear bags?▸

The R&B Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag (SKU 200MC-XL, 200BS-XL, 200RD-XL) provides 5,200 cubic inches of storage capacity with dimensions of 24" L x 13½" D x 16" H, specifically engineered to accommodate full turnout gear including boots, bunker pants, coat, and helmet with room to spare. This expanded capacity addresses the common challenge firefighters face when standard bags can't fit all essential equipment, eliminating the need to carry multiple bags to the station or scene.

What makes the Cordura® nylon construction on this R&B turnout bag superior for fire service use?▸

The R&B Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag is constructed from heavy-duty Cordura® nylon, a military-grade fabric known for exceptional abrasion resistance and tear strength. This material withstands the harsh conditions of fireground operations, repeated loading/unloading cycles, and exposure to moisture and chemicals. At just 31 oz., the bag delivers industrial durability without adding unnecessary weight to your gear transport, making it ideal for daily station use and emergency response deployments.

How does the window ID slot on the R&B XL turnout bag improve gear accountability at the firehouse?▸

The top-mounted window ID slot allows firefighters to insert name cards, unit numbers, or shift identifiers for instant visual recognition in apparatus bays or locker rooms. The 200BK XL-WINDOW and 200RD XL-WINDOW variants feature an additional front clear vinyl pocket for printed labels, enabling dual identification points. This design eliminates confusion during shift changes, multi-company responses, or training exercises where multiple identical bags are present.

Can the R&B Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag accommodate specialty rescue equipment beyond standard bunker gear?▸

Yes, the 5,200 cubic inch capacity of the R&B Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag makes it versatile for technical rescue teams, hazmat units, and wildland firefighters who carry additional equipment. The expanded dimensions easily fit rope rescue hardware, SCBA accessories, wildland PPE, or medical response gear alongside standard turnout equipment. Fire departments often use these bags for apparatus compartment organization, training academy student gear, or backup equipment storage at substations.

Which R&B Extra-Large Turnout Gear Bag variant is best for EMS and fire-rescue dual-role departments?▸

The 200BS-XL (Royal Blue with Star of Life logo) is purpose-built for EMS and fire-rescue personnel, featuring the universally recognized Star of Life emblem. For departments wanting neutral identification, the 200BK-XL-WINDOW (Black with Clear Window) or 200RD-XL-WINDOW (Red with Clear Window) variants offer customizable labeling without pre-printed logos. All variants share the same Made in the USA quality, Cordura® construction, and $119.78 price point, ensuring consistent performance across your fleet.
