Recovery Gear Bag

Recovery gear comes back wet, gritty and heavy. A used strap is loaded with sand, shackles and a snatch block are dead weight, and gloves are filthy by definition — that is the whole point of them. The Recovery Gear Bag exists to keep all of it in one place and out of the cabin, so a recovery does not end with mud spread across the rest of your kit.

At 18 in long x 11.5 in wide x 9 in tall it is sized for a working kit rather than a showroom one. Hand-sewn from heavy-duty fabric, it has a large main compartment for the bulk items — recovery straps, shackles, a snatch block — and a smaller side compartment for gloves, a tire repair kit or jumper cables so those do not end up buried under a wet strap. Zippered slip pockets take the things you reach for first. A velcro loop panel on the outside takes an ID tag, which is what keeps the recovery bag from becoming the third bag you open while someone else is stuck.

What to know before you buy

This is the bag only — the recovery gear and the pouches are sold separately. If you run a full kit with kinetic rope, ground mats and multiple pulleys, go up to the Deluxe.
