Vintage 1959’ Swiss army ‘Salt & Pepper’ mountaineers rucksack
This classic, high quality backpack is perfect for hiking or everyday use!
I personally have been using a similar bag every day for two years now!

The outer layer of the bag is made of canvas in olive-green color.
The schoulder- & front straps are made of very robust, strong saddle leather.
The leather parts have been cleaned and oiled, making the bag more flexible and comfortable to wear!
The design of this early model is slightly different from the bags made in 60’s – 80’s which makes it more suitable for everyday use!

The leather on the back is marked with origional initials of the first owner: and year ’59’.

The bag is in a well-used condition.
The two leather shoulder straps have been replaces by newer ones that are lighter brown in color.
The Backpack stood the test of being used for years and will last just as long!
