Title: Vintage SADF Kidney Pouches with Yoke Pattern 70 1970's.
Manufactured By: Manufactured for the SADF, 1970's.
Info: These pouches were fitted to the back of the webbing set and were used to carry a soldiers essentials in the field. Packs were often discarded when going into battle to make it a little easier to move around, but the kidney pouches remained with the soldier. As such they were used to carry the essentials a man might need for 24 hours without his main pack, items such as rations and mess tins to get a hot meal.
The design was clearly inspired by earlier patterns, both the 61/64 SADF set and the British 58 pattern before that. The design features two large pouches, joined together, that hold the mans equipment. Each of these is covered with a top flap, secured with a strap and pressed metal buckle.
