Kit bag recommendations

[JoeBlow]

I'm looking for something compact to carry FF Helmet, shoes, knee pads, waterproofs etc.to the trail centre in an organised manner but not too expensive like some of the "designer" bags you see. I have been using one of those semi rigid boot liners which was just perfect. Unfortunately my new bike with bigger forks and 29" wheels is too big to accommodate it. I'm currently using an IKEA bag but it tends to collapse at the sides allowing things to spill out.

Two "bags for life" from any of the big supermarkets?

They are big, strong, washable, and when they wear out you can swap them for a brand new one. How cheap is that!

Cheapskate Tried that, it suffers from the same problem as the IKEA bag, no support so stuff spills out.

Tie the handles together, zip tie them, or even better - use a clothes peg!

To be clear I'm looking for something like the boot liner I mentioned with compartments and partitions to organise gear but smaller. I have duffle bags and IKEA bags but I don't find them convenient other than for stuffing wet items into to bring home. I don't want a single compartment duffle.

Mx kit bag ?

second a mx kit bag, I use a fox one and it has compartments for different things, has a pull out mat. I fit my gear and the wife’s in one bag, but you did say you didn’t want expensive, I didn’t think it was but then everyone’s idea of expensive is different?
?

Seen these but they look a bit on the large size at 82cms long. That's about the same as my boot tidy which won't fit. At least not in a tidy fashion. I'm thinking something about 50cm x 30cm x 35cm.

Thanks for that. The 40 litre one looks as though it might fit the bill. Does anyone know if it has some structure to it i.e. some rigidity?
