Got a Hero Survival Bag? Great choice! Now, let's make sure it's ready when you need it. Here's how to store the Hero Survival Bag to keep it in top shape for emergencies.

What Is the Hero Survival Bag? 

The Hero Survival Bag helps you survive during extreme weather conditions, like when you're stuck in the middle of nowhere during a blizzard. But how should you store it? Find out now. 

In particular, the Hero Survival Bag keeps 90% of your body heat and is resistant to extreme weather. Its lining and shell are made of durable and flexible PE (polyethylene), which can keep up to 90% of the wearer's body heat. The Hero Survival Bag is also 100% waterproof and windproof, which comes in handy during extreme weather conditions. 

To increase your chances of survival, the Hero Survival Bag is designed to be lightweight and smaller than a soda can. This makes it ideal for your wilderness survival kit, family bug-out bag, car emergency kit, and the like. Despite its small folded size, it's roomy enough to cover two small people or a seven-foot, 300-pound person. 

Lastly, the Hero Survival Bag's bright orange color makes it easy for rescuers to find you if you get lost or stranded and can't move. 

How to Store Your Hero Survival Bag

The Hero Survival Bag is a must-have for cold weather and survival emergencies. Here's how to store it properly: 

1. Remove dirt and moisture.

Properly cleaning and drying your Hero Survival Bag before storing it helps extend its lifespan and keeps it effective. 

Moisture trapped in your survival bag can cause mold and mildew to grow, which can damage the material and cause smelly odors. Meanwhile, dirt and debris can mess with the insulation, decreasing its ability to keep you warm during cold weather. Residual sweat, food, and other organic matter can also attract insects and rodents. 

2. Fold the bag.

Lay your Hero Survival Bag flat on a clean, dry surface. Fold it in half lengthwise and match the edges as neatly as possible. Then, fold it in half again. Smooth out any wrinkles as you fold. 

3. Put the bag in its pouch. 

Once done, gently roll your hero Survival Bag and put it into its pouch. Then, pull the string to close the bag without tightening it too much. Then, secure it with the cord lock. 

4. Pick the right storage space. 

Choose a dry, cool storage space away from direct sunlight. Exposing your Hero Survival Bag to sunlight can weaken the material and cause its orange color to fade. 

Ideally, store your survival bag in a closet or drawer where it's easily accessible yet protected from the elements. If your survival bag is part of an emergency kit, make sure it's visible and accessible. Quick access to your survival bag makes a huge difference during an emergency. 

5. Regularly check it.

Regularly check your Hero Survival Bag for signs of damage like tears, holes, and fraying seams. If you see any issues, address them immediately to prevent more damage. 

Conclusion

Proper storage prolongs your Hero Survival Bag's lifespan and effectiveness. So keep it clean, dry, and neatly folded in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight. This way, it'll always be ready to keep you safe. Stay prepared, hero!
