This bag came with my Samshield helmet.....

This was in the box with my new helmet.

I am completely confused by it.

I’ve googled it and tried to see an example of it being used. Its strap comes out at about a 30* angle (top and bottom) and forms a loop which buckles together. Is it supposed to be like a sachel/backpack thing?

Or is it supposed to be worn by a horse? Put on my dog? Attached to my golf cart?

I’ve held it up and turned it over and around and just can’t figure it out!

Maybe it’s supposed to be worn like a cross-body backpack?

Looks like a one strap backpack :slight_smile: The strap should go diagonally across your front body and over one shoulder, then buckle by the opposite hip! I used a small pack like this in university a lot when I biked everywhere - more stable than a two strap backpack.

It is meant to keep your new helmet in so it does not get dirty. :slight_smile:

Some of the helmets come with those and others with a thinner top drawstring, but they’re grey. I wanted yours, but got the cheapie one :cry:

Mine came with both bags.

This is my thought. If you do google images there are examples of people wearing them.

No fair! The custom color one I got for DD last year only came with the thin drawstring. :no:

PM me your address and I can mail to you if she’d use it. I never will.

Ditto the above. One of my Samshields came with just the drawstring (the matte model) and my premium came with both. I do find the bag handy as I can
Keep gloves and my hair net in there too. I’ve just thrown it over my shoulder :slight_smile:

we don’t use ours either

I would use the heck out of something like that.

It’s a cross body bag. I love mine – its the perfect size when I’m just going to the barn and not in need of a full on backpack. I actually don’t put my helmet in it though – that stays in its other bag in my trunk!

Love it! I stick my hat, gloves, and hair net in it. Great for packing into the trunk (car and show). :slight_smile:

It’s a cross body backpack… I have 2 and love them for horse shows! I use the small drawstring helmet bag that also came with it for my helmet and this for carrying water, rags, sunscreen and brushes etc to the show ring

Yep, it’s a backpack. Love mine, and it even hangs nicely in the trailer.

Mine only came with the thin drawstring ): I’d love a bag like that !!

Man! Mine came with nothing! :frowning:

I just asked today at the tack store how much that bag is, they had it hanging alone like it was for sale and DD also got just the string version. I was surprised to find out you can’t buy it and that one came from the box of their display helmet, seems like they could easily sell them! I think that size is perfect, especially since she has to keep her epi pens with her everywhere she goes. Right now she flings a full size backpack on her back when she rides down to the ring because the string sack types fall apart too fast and won’t fit the helmet.
