Olive Drab Israeli Paratrooper Bag

Paratrooper Shoulder Bag

The Rothco Israeli Paratrooper Bag is a cotton canvas shoulder bag modeled on the satchel carried by Israeli Army paratroopers. A full flap covers a three-section main compartment and a snap-front organizer pouch, so papers, a tablet, tools and small kit each have their own place. It is sized for daily carry, whether you're commuting, going to class or heading out for the day. The color is OD, short for olive drab, the standard military green.

Features

• Heavyweight Cotton Canvas — The body is unwashed cotton canvas, meaning it has not been pre-washed, so it keeps a stiff, dense feel.
• Three-Section Main Compartment — Dividers split the main compartment into three sections, which keeps documents apart from bulkier gear.
• Snap-Front Organizer Pouch — The front pouch closes with snaps and has 18 pencil or shell loops inside, set in two rows of nine.
• Full-Cover Flap With Clip — A large flap folds over the top and front, and a clip fastens it down to the front pouch.
• Red Parawing Emblem — The flap carries a red parawing, the parachute-and-wings design used on jump badges.
• Adjustable Shoulder Strap — The cotton webbing strap adjusts to as long as 41 inches and attaches to the bag with snap hooks.
• Rear D-Rings — Two D-rings on webbing tabs across the back give you anchor points for clipping on keys or small accessories.
• 15 x 11 x 4 Inch Size — At about 38 x 28 x 10 cm, the bag holds a day's load without getting bulky on the hip.

Canvas Build And Fit

Rothco builds this bag from heavyweight cotton canvas with matching cotton webbing on the strap and rear tabs, and black hardware on the clips and D-rings. It is a commercial reproduction of the Israeli paratrooper pattern, not issued surplus, so it arrives new. The 15 x 11 x 4 inch body and the strap's 41 inches of reach let it sit comfortably across the body or hang from one shoulder.
