Breadbag (conversion)

Not my normal thing, as I don't "make" these, I only convert them to a suitable configuration for WW2 reenactment.

Post-war, the design/layout of the issued breadbag changed, though the main shape remained the same.
The problem with the post-war bag was the adding of extra leather loops on the flap, plus the re-positioning of the belt loops.

I therefore decided to make "new" WW2 SA breadbags; mainly brought about by the huge disappointment of a repro. example from the USA, as it had around 2 dozen major & minor faults:
it was so bad that after a 12 month wait for it, I sent it back within the week for a refund!

In order to have a decent breadbag for my own use I instead sourced some post-war NEW & unissued ones.
Removing extra loops from a used breadbag leaves tell-tale shadows of darker cloth...doing this with a new bag = no shadow.

As with my E-tool carrier - I have used my own item for several seasons now to great effect
