Beautifully unique vintage surplus from Sweden. Bags like this one were made en masse during the early days of the cold war, first as army issue and latterly for civilian use in case of chemical attacks. As these were designed to fit the very specific shape of a gas mask and its extra filters and kit, the bag is unusual in shape and makes for a great standout piece.

The bag is closed with 3 clips and a canvas strap. Internally you'll find various clip pockets and pouches that vary in shape and size as again these were made for an array of unusually shaped gas mask components. The shoulder strap can be adjusted and unhooked. Extremely durable thanks to the all cotton canvas material.

We have plenty more of these in stock, some in better and some in more distressed and grungy conditions.
