That’s our combat pack… we carried a shovel in the center and a brown thin woolly blanket from the bottom straps.
My Battalion was 4BTG ALPINI ORTA
Peace and enjoy the pack
I’ve had this pack for years. Don’t know why you bought it you’re going to change everything. Mine’s very useful as is.
Is this item still available?
Thanks for showing us, good review!
Best regards Michael
Hi dude, the backpack was used unitil 80′ by the whole Italian Army (sure that my father rused it !!) but it’s called “Alpini” just cuz’ they are one of the most iconic army division and they where the first to use that. For the shoulder straps you’re totally right need some modification for confort XD
Fuck’s sake . . . . what are you 12? Get your ass home and get the tape then shoot the video. Or just add the dimensions through editing. Damn. Do I have to do all the thinking around here?
Dude, your review inspired me to pick up this rucksack. I totally love this thing! It has made me scale-down the amount of gear I carry with me into the bush (I learned I do not need to take all that stuff). Looking forward to a 3 day hike this spring with this pack.
When are you posting next?
this rucksack was in use in italian army as tacctical rucksack untill the beginning/end of the 80’s. It’s the same design and shape during the WWII
Great review! I am a huge fan of military surplus gear! Looks like a really nice canvas pack! Thanks for sharing!
