L.A. Rescue® Bags
Construction & Materials
"Only The Highest Quality Materials Are Used"
When we say only the highest, WE MEAN IT!
When we need a bag, we need one that can withstand the everyday brutal world we work in. We cannot afford to cut corners, especially when it comes to saving lives. We need our bags to hold and protect the belongings we put into them. Whether its for a life saving oxygen tank, an Isothermal Blanket, to your socks, you are not just purchasing an L.A. Rescue® bag to hold your things, but you are purchasing insurance and assurance that your necessities will be making it to the scene, and coming back with you by the end.
