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 Hipster Bag / 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.

These two come in a modern European adversary or OPFOR camouflage pattern - the very elusive Russian "SAR" or "Digital Desert", used in Syria and printed on Cordura. All the webbing is 1 in wide and comes in the same pattern with the standard version having an additional four straps with MILSPEC snap-buckles for external storage. The standard one comes with an external pocket closed with Velcro, the slim one has one with two zippers. All have additional Velcro - at the standard one's covered with a blank patch - and some for a name-tape. The inside of both versions is lined - the standard in light-brown, the slim one in light Olive drab Cordura.

Under #youcantcamouflagetruth 20€ Euros of the selling price of the standard and 10€ of that of the slim one will be donated to Truth Hounds, a team of human rights professionals working on documenting war crimes and crimes against humanity in war contexts.

Size standard: ca. 23 in x 18 in
Size slim: ca. 23 in x 14 in
