German WW2 Army M31 bread bag
This bread bag is not dated
Olive drab, water repellent, canvas construction bread bag with leather, steel fittings.
This bread bag was part of a barn find, it's 100% untouched and new to the market.
You can see some stains and wear. If you want you can easily just dip in water and I guess most stains would go away but for us that's a no go.
The bread bag was issued with a strap but it was rarely used. Most of the time the breadbag strap was discarded, or used for other purposes (like in carrying belts for ammo boxes, helmet folliage strap or replacement for the Y-belt).
The standard issue M31 haversack, commonly referred to as the "breadbag", was based on the M1887 haversack and was adopted by the Wehrmacht as well as a wide variety of uniformed and non-uniformed political and paramilitary organizations in 1931. The main variation in breadbags used by political and para-military personnel as opposed to Wehrmacht personnel was the color. The breadbag was designed to carry rations, eating utensils and other assorted personal items.
