- A quick "show n tell" of the Polish Army bread bag that I use as a day trip woods bag. It has many pockets that helps keep your gear organized. At the time of this video, the bag could be bought on EBay for $8 to $12.

hehe i have also one - my is made (like me) in 1988 and i bought it for 5 euro in a weaponshop in GER. i was born in poland so i really love this bag. i carry it all the time with minimal gear in it. water (or beer ;) ) bottle. Leatherman SURGE. Flashlight. gloves. dry tinder. matchbox. paracord. food. i take it to work - to shop - to walk - to fish. everywhere
Thanks for watching and for your comment. I still enjoy using mine on day hikes. Some of the contents I carry have changed a little since the video and depends on where I am going or what I am doing. I like the way the bag looks too. Have a great day!
I watched your video and decided to buy this bag for $15. The online shopping mall website lacked detailed photos,
but through your video, I was able to get an idea of the approximate size, internal structure, and how to use it. I've never used this type of bag, but it looks like a good bag.
My bread bag is due to be delivered tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so I'm very excited right now!
Nice !
The Straps beneath the bag can also be used to secure a rolled up Ponch etc.
Real nice little bag. Thanks for showing us and take care.
I had a video of yours in a recommended section and since watched some of your videos. You do a very good job with showcasing items in very good detail along with measurements. Thanks for taking your time to share with us you items, you have earned a new subscriber.
Nim Rod Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoy what I do. Thanks for subscribing!
what a wonderful pack and awesome look at it - thx john / thumbed it up!
Perfect food bag , i need one !
Great bag. My one was made in 74 (according to the ticket floating inside) the internal pockets didn't have snaps though. had a string loop style fastener
I really appreciate you making these videos. I was going to get the Czech bag and watched your review, but after seeing this I'm going with Polish instead.
Thanks John!
Steve Delucchi I’m glad my video was some help. I hope you enjoy your Polish bread bag!
you probably won't answer this comment but I want to inform you that this bag is called by Polish soldiers CHLEBAK (bread box)
and is used to store a mess tin, canteen, several other smaller items like soap, but the most important thing in this bag polish soldiers caring granades, these two pockets on the back were heard for caring grenades,it was integrated into tactical
suspenders jokingly called choking suspenders
Bartosz Morawiec hello, I was aware that it is was bread bag that carried the canteen and mess kit but I didn’t not know it carried grenades at the same time. Thanks for sharing!
@@John-Sherwood-W4JFS
you're welcome, and there is also an old soldier's joke about it, which the bread box does, of course, for storing grenades.because in polish we call this bag (Chlebak)
in the literal translation bread box, btw polish (CH) is pronounced like songle (H) in english
Wow! That must be old! I remember as a kid, back in the 1970s, kids used to mess around with the strap and make a small backpack out of it. I didn´t as I had a small military backpack already. Yep, I was a hotshot in the neighborhood. LOL! Cool channel!
It's a very good bag POLISH ARMY .In Poland, on online auctions this bag costs only 3 - 4 $ (new) and 1 - 3 $ used ,but good condition.This bag can withstand several dozen years of use. PRODUCT OF POLAND
I agree! It is still serving me well! Thanks for watching and for your comment!
Like the snaps on inside pockets. I ordered a 2 pack from Coleman's surplus for $9.95, they have metal "buttons" for inside pockets. The one you have Repel in holds a Bumble Bee snack on the run box just right. It will also fit a Starkist tuna salad kit box.
Just love this bag, best haversack for the money!
I like it. Really nice size for an all day hike. I am really into downsizing my gear these days and this bag looks pretty cool.
Matt, thanks for your comment. I think you will like it if you find a possibles bag comfortable vs a small backpack for a day trip.
FloridaBoy Bushcraft & Survival I've got one the Polish army make great equipment. Its built to last .
Thanks. That was helpful. I have been trying to figure out the proper way to use the straps. 👍
Nice bag and contents. Stay safe
I got mine for £4 ($5) mint but no shoulder strap. I got confused until watching this on how to buckle the straps 👍
Great video dude.
Just got one myself.
It's amazing how much stuff you had packed in there.
Going to get the VDV kit as well.
10/10
:DD
Corey Marshall Thanks for watching my video and for commenting! I hope you enjoy your new addition and good luck on getting a VDV kit too!
Great Video! It's a Bug Out Kitchen. I have mine set up in a similar fashion.
Great seeing you get some trail time. I have a Finnish gas mask bag, not as big as yours.
mine just came in and it is going to be a good bag
Interesting, and I'm glad that this bread bag works for you. Personally, I'm not a fan of over the shoulder bags because the single strap tends to dig in after an hour or so. My small possibles bag is a Hill People Gear Tamara pack. It holds everything I need and for longer outings I can use it as an exterior pocket on the main pack.
The bread box in the Polish army, as the name suggests, is used to carry grenades
John, I just wax treated my polish bread bag with some mods. It looks great with structure and very waterproof. It’s awesome brother.
Mark Hager cool! I haven’t got around to waterproofing mine. It needs it bad because I can see light through the material. Thanks for watching and for your comment!
Love mine
I was fortunate enough to score two of these for under $5 each last year. They are excellent as a stand-alone haversack, or as an organiser for small items in a larger pack (I use it with my veshmeshok).
Yes I agree. Never used it with my Vesmeshok or as an organizing bag in my pack but that is a great idea! Thanks for watching and for your comment!
I want you to know John, I purchased a Polish bread bag for my cousin for Christmas because of this video.
Greg Andy I hope your cousin enjoys it! It’s a very nice bag. Thanks for letting me know and for watching my video!
It's nice to see people from other countries like our historical stuff :)
This straps on the back are to attached bag to the soldiers belt. It was on the right side of the belt. In this two main "pockets" divided by piece of material there was canteen (in smaller one) and a... sorry i don't have a word "military plate". Canteen have their own pouch on belt, but in every regiment there was diffrences between "how use webbing" becouse these in military regulations was insane. And creator of this don't think about molle but it can be attached to mollies :D It was used not only by military but in civil defense, scouts etc. At last there was joke about stupidity in military "Bread bag as name says is to carry grenades" :D Thanks for video :D
Thanks for your post and sharing how the bag was used. The English word for "military plate" you might be looking for is "mess kit". I really enjoy using the bag for day hikes with a shoulder strap. Soon I will be getting Polish canteen (wz 39) and mess kit (wz 70) for my collection! Thanks for your funny military joke and for watching my video :D
It looks like a handy bag for any small load
It's perfect for a day walk in the woods. Thanks for watching!
ooh I like that!. Lil bag holds a lot doesn't it? Thanks!
These are very cheap, good value, and best of all, it will last years of ourdoor use!!, i had accidentely left one outside, found it maybe 5 or six years later, although beginning to show signs of rot, it was still useable
Wow! That's incredible! I never would have guessed to would last that long. I still enjoy taking mine out sometimes. These days I have too many bags to choose from. Thanks for watching and for your comment!
Im always looking for the "perfect" bag. Maybe this is it?
Thanks for the review.
I like it because it has the pockets to organize your little stuff. To me it has that bushcraft feel with the color and material of the bag and its a nice size for day walks in the woods to practice your skills. I think its possible to attach a rolled up tarp to the bottom for shelter. I have seen other videos where people have added patches to the flap of the bag to personalize. I'm thinking about doing this with Velcro so I can change patches from time to time. I hope my video was some help. JOHN
E-Bay
Great bag! Just b9ught one and cheap too👍where do u store ur water?
Thanks for your videos, John. I'd like to see some wisdom on how you clean/deodorize your military surplus. I know there must be some secrets you've uncovered.
That could make a solid medical kit
got mine today....un used and in top condition. it is a great bag indeed.
Nice! Did yours have a piece of paper inside with a date stamp?
John Sherwood yes but only a part is visible....it was un used and in stock for many years. I think it is from the mid 70's or so.
Very cool! Enjoy your bag.
John Sherwood i sure will .
I just bought one for metal detecting I think it will work good well I hope so ....waste bags dont work for me I have absolutely no butt checks so they slide right down it's so frustrating and uncomfortable specialy when your sweaty and tired .
Mines the same but it has buttons on the inside pouches.
What a good looking bag! Are they an army or a fashion show? ;-)
Johnny Rook I’m not sure! Maybe a little of both? Lol! Enjoyed your comment! Thanks for watching.
I love my VDV mess kit as well, sadly it shipped without the pouch.
Thats too bad about the pouch. It's not really needed to function but it does add to the piece. Did you replace the rubber gasket in your canteen? I found it to be the source of the smell in my bottle. I made a cork one and kept the rubber one for collection sake.
John Sherwood I actually kept the tire tube gasket, a good vinegar rinse got rid of almost all of the smell. I also rinse all the water bottles I use with vinegar to keep them clean and smelling good. This Polish bread bag has to be one of the best looking shoulder bags Ive seen and Ive been using things of this style for a long time in the bush.
What's the purpose of the split rings on your shoulder strap hooks?
Just to give me a little more strap length. I really like that strap and the split rings were the quickest and most heavy duty way I had at the time to make the bag hang the way I wanted it.
Seeing as it's a polish bag I wonder if the left hand side is sized to hold peanut canteen?
Yes, if what you are calling a peanut canteen is the polish canteen. It fits really good in that pocket even with the wool cover on it. Also the polish mess kit will fit on the other side even though all the pictures I've seen show them carrying it attached to the back of their pack.
Ah thanks John. I've got one of the later canteens with the clips and green webbing,
can i ask you guys one question,did any body here try to put this bag on norwegian army backpack(telemark packs).I have an idea about combining them.I think this pack can fit on to it.
I have not. I'm not really familiar with the Norwegian pack. Hopefully someone can give you an answer that helps.
Old military stuff is cool
Collecting this stuff is very cool and can be addicting! My wife thinks I have a problem. I tell her I can quit anytime I want.
John Sherwood I think I have that same problem but one less problem than you, no wife to complain LOL
This bag looks much more organised than the Cech (sorry about the spelling)version of the bread bag.
Yes, this bag is larger and more organized but not as water resistant as the Czech. The flap on this bag doesn't have as good of side coverage from the rain either. In fact, the fabric on this bag (a least mine) isn't water resistant at all. I can see light though the material on flap. I usually carry my Polish mess kit and canteen in this bag and put water sensitive things in ziplock or waterproof bags when I carry it just in case I get an afternoon shower which happens a lot here in Florida. Other than that, its a great bag and lots of people love them.
Hell yea bread
So there’s. No bread
I have a Polish bred bag, and about half a dozen other military shoulder bags. I prefer them to the modern leather bags that are too heavy, and not at all good if you get water in them, Spray a military should bag down with a good water repellent, and it will stay dry, and last forever. Now, if I could just decide which one I like best.
Well, deciding is the hard part. I have several too. I can't narrow it down to just one. I use all of them at different times. For me that's the best answer :)
Thanks for the show and tell. That's a Polish purse bro...
Anything Goes lol! In the city its a purse my friend but when in the woods, it’s a full blown haversack. But I understand your comment. Thanks for watching and for your comment!
you know, back in the day the comunis decided that: "the bread bag (just as the name suggests) serves to hold your granates" - true stroy,
Watches review then logs onto eBay and buys one, nice 😀
£8 total cost,you can't get a better bargain than that
Lol! Happens to me all the time! I hope you enjoy your bag. Thanks for watching my video and for your comment!
