Helmet & Goggle bags

Protect Your Riding Gear with XLMOTO Helmet Bags and Goggle Cases

As with most things related to carrying your motorcycle kit, you could use any regular bag. There is a 'but' though, and it's a big one. Bags and cases designed to carry a motorcycle helmet or goggles have gone through a lengthy R&D process. The result of this research is a motorcycle helmet bag or goggles case that ticks all the obvious boxes and a few you may not have had time to consider.

Why do you need a motorcycle helmet bag or goggles case?

A suitable motorcycle helmet bag is not just about ease of transportation. Whether it's a pre-loved helmet or a brand-new high-tech investment, the bag's prime role is to protect.

If you're unlucky enough to drop a helmet onto a hard, abrasive, or sharp surface, you risk damaging the shell and maybe even ruining an expensive paint job. This same risk of damage extends to the helmet's visor, the visor's fasteners or hinges, and any intercom system attached to the side of the helmet.

Damage also applies to motorcycle goggles. The good news is, though, you can avoid scratched lenses and crushed frames with the simple addition of a goggles case.

Motorcycle helmet bags and goggle cases are the ideal solutions to storage problems. Park your bike up for the winter, and your favourite headgear and safety eyewear will be dust free and ready to rock when the riding season rolls along.

Materials

Polyester is one of the most versatile and popular textiles in the world. It is possible to weave this synthetic polymer fabric into any shape; better still, it is wear, tear and stretch resistant. These features make it ideal for helmet bags, goggle cases, and almost every item of motorcycle safety clothing.

Most XLMOTO helmet bags and goggle cases are either 100% Polyester or have a high Polyester content. This feature means they'll be hard-wearing, wear-resistant, and retain their shape.

Features to look for in a motorcycle helmet bag or goggles case

Lining – To ensure your helmet bag or goggles case offers optimum protection, the interior should provide either a fleece lining or padding. When choosing multi-goggle cases, you should also look for sponge separators.

Extra Pockets – Although not a deal breaker, additional pockets, particularly in helmet bags, are a great addition. Here you can stow everything from spare visors or goggles to action cameras.

Handles – Even if you have a flip-front polycarbonate adventure helmet tipping the scales at around 4.5 lb (1980gm), it will not give the carrying handles any problems. Even so, examine product images to ensure handles and straps include double-stitching for longevity.

Vents – Again, vents are not necessary, but their inclusion on a helmet bag ensures the airflow will help to evaporate sweat or rain and keep things fresh.

Different types of helmet bags and goggles cases

Helmet Bags – There are two styles of helmet bags. The first is a pre-shaped bag for extended peaks found on motocross or adventure-style helmets. The second is a holdall style bag suitable for road or track helmets.

Goggle Cases - As with helmet bags, this category falls into two styles. First is the multiple goggles case. These items feature a hard shell and have adjustable compartments to store numerous goggles. Alternatively, a single goggles case or box has a pre-shaped design to accommodate one pair of goggles.

Whichever style you choose, the XLMOTO helmet bag and goggle case range will protect and transport your favourite gear perfectly.
