Full Description
The South African SADF 70 Pattern Small Pack is an original military surplus patrol bag.
Bush War Heritage
Issued to the South African Defence Force during the 1970s and 1980s Border War, this pack replaced the older 61 Pattern gear. Based on the British 58 Pattern, it was adapted for hot climates and field durability. In Distressed condition, these bags show heavy military use, including marks, small repairs, or surface staining while remaining functional.
Practical Layout and Storage
The pack features a 3.5L main compartment measuring 8 x 9 x 3.5 inches, secured with a top flap and webbing strap buckle. Two side pockets measuring 3.5 x 6 x 2 inches provide space for smaller items. Originally designed to hold R1 rifle magazines or field rations, the outer pouches offer quick access on the move.
Carrying System and Materials
Made from heavy cotton canvas with solid metal fittings, this bag handles tough outdoor environments. It includes an adjustable canvas shoulder strap with metal snap clips and rear webbing loops to mount directly onto a belt or load-bearing system. It works well as a small shoulder bag for bushcraft, hiking, or daily use.
Add an original piece of South African military history to your outdoor gear setup.
