While traveling through Europe, we came across a stash of these authentic Swiss Military Pannier Bags. These double sided bags have two large pouches that can be packed full of all kinds of books, clothes or supplies. Made of durable cotton canvas this Swiss military bag travels well draped over a bicycle as a pannier or can be carried with the center top carry handle. As with any Swiss Military surplus, this bag is built to last. This unique bag features the original red cross symbol as it was used to carry medical supplies to the Swiss troops.
