Genuine Issue SADF Pattern 70 Pack – Heavy Canvas South African Military Gear

The Genuine Issue SADF Pattern 70 Pack is a classic piece of South African military surplus. Originally developed as a rugged upgrade to Britain’s Pattern 58 system, the Pattern 70 webbing was tailored for the extreme conditions of the African bush during the Border War era.

Crafted from extremely heavy-duty canvas and reinforced with staunch stitching, this pack embodies the simplicity, functionality, and toughness demanded by combat troops. While designed to be part of the full Pattern 70 webbing system, it also functions as a standalone field-ready backpack.

Key Features:

• One large main storage compartment for rations, gear, or clothing
• Two side pouches for smaller essentials or ammo
• Adjustable canvas straps for shoulder or belt-mounted use
• Constructed of extremely thick, heavy canvas for durability
• Designed to pair with other Pattern 70 webbing (grootsak, kidney pouches, etc.)

Condition: Issued military surplus. Expect signs of wear, possible fading, and sometimes graffiti from the original SADF soldier who used it—each pack tells a story.

This pack is ideal for collectors, reenactors, outdoorsmen, and those who simply want bulletproof old-school gear that doesn’t quit.
