Dutch Day Pack, 35 l, DPM, Surplus

A small, well-designed day pack. Ex-Dutch army issue and used. These are made so well that we'd be tempted to give a lifelong guarantee. Occasionally there are very lightly used, almost like unissued day packs available!

In short: If you can get past the camo, this is the perfect little daypack for an unbeatable price/quality ratio! Like a good life, it's well compartmentalized for convenience and even fits a laptop inside. No breaky breaky, this pack is made super mega well.

Once in a blue moon we get a batch of very lightly used day packs. The features are the same, but the price tag is a bit higher. Lightly used day packs have vibrant colors, no dirt, and barely any signs of use.

The modernish Dutch stuff is generally pretty good, and this pack is no exception:

• Padded, uniquely designed shoulder straps with good room for adjustment.
• Adjustable sternum strap.
• A place for a name tag.
• Carrying handle.
• Main comparment divided into three parts. The dividers can be cut off if necessary, but they really help organizing your stuff.
• Against the back, a flat compartment for foam padding (likely not included). Any piece of foam will do. The compartment can also be used for storing documents.
• Side pouches with snap closure. These are open on the backside - useful for long objects.
• The lid is closed with quick release buckles, and features a flat compartment inside. Thanks to the good adjustments, the pack can be overpacked.
• ALICE- and M1910- (and MOLLE- ) compatible attachment points on the front and lid.
• Measurements of the main compartment about 28 x 38 x 14 cm. Don't take these too literally, though.
• Made of durable, military grade DPM-camouflaged nylon material, which most likely is IRR-treated and at least water repellent.
