New Made Item: Derived from the Model 1931 used by Mountain troops, the M41 Rucksack or Backpack also completely replaced the Tornister 39 in tropical zones. Because of its undoubted practicality and modernity, in 1944, it came to form part of the standard wehrmacht marching equipment until the end of the war. The rucksack had internal pockets for the cooking utensils, sewing kit, etc.
The construction this reproduction is second to none. Correct cotton canvas with genuine leather tabs, steel fittings and correct full size, just like they were made in WW2!
This backpack interfaced with both the 1939 leather Y straps and canvas Y straps.
We include simple shoulder straps for ease of use, but for true authentic wear this pack should be paired with our excellent German WW2 leather Y-Straps (AGG7116).
Y-Straps are not included, however, simple leather shoulder straps are included.
Approx size: 18″ by 16″ by 4.5″
