V-0108 Slim Veshmeshok / Daypack in Kryptek® Highlander & Typhon patterns

The Veshmeshok used to be "just" a simple hundred years old Soviet Army backpack worn by millions of Soviet and Russian soldiers and later via the surplus market by Finnish Hipsters. ;-) 

It indeed is a simple yet very practical design coming with only one adjustable sling that at the same time closes the bag and serves as shoulder straps. Simply put - the heavier you fill the bag, the more secure the knot gets in holding it.

I decided to "modernize" the concept and give it new live as the "big brother" of the ubiquitous Drawstring bag. And a big brother it is, having way more room and a "proper" sling instead of strings. Also, all Veshmeshoks feature an external pocket.

This one comes in the modern US Kryptek® Highlander camouflage pattern printed on Cordura which has been reinforced at the bottom with the complementary Kryptek® Typhon pattern. It has an external pocket closed with two zippers and additional Velcro for a patch as well as some for a nametape above the pocket. The 1 in wide carrying sling comes in black. The Veshmeshok is lined in black cotton and is of the slim version.

Like most bags this of course also comes with a sample sheet detailing the materials used.

Size: ca. 23 in x 14 in
