Finnish bread bag, very rough

A proper vintage military shoulder bag and a piece of Finnish history too! These are in soooo rough condition, better pick up a needle and some thread right away.

This type of bread bag is an old classic, first fielded en masse by the Germans in WW1, in Finland this type of shoulder bag saw use through WW2 up till the introduction of the M/85 load-bearing system in the early90s!

As the name says, these were often used to carry a soldier's daily rations, but also ammunition and anything else needed in the field. In WW2 the most common fighting equipment used by Finnish troops was simply a leather belt and this type of bag, to which mess kit and canteen could be attached.

Used military surplus

In super rough condition, with large tears and holes and probably missing something too. You will likely haw to sew it up again if you're planning on using the bag. Some have a shoulder strap too. We won't pick.
