It was one of the "Bourne" movies with that big-earred Damon fella. I think there were quite a few worn in "Village of the ######" as well.

Was it in the original or in the Carpenter's remake?

Yes, about 4 years ago the Bourne Supremecy has the villian (played by Karl Urban) sporting the infamous and unaltered bag at the beginning of the film while pursuing Jason Bourne.

I noticed a few of the Tommies in "Atonement" carrying these beauties.

Any WWII flick with Brits or Canadians...you'll see hundreds of the bags

No, it wasnt (thats what made it so random). because it wasnt a war or period film. I think thats why it was so hard to remember!

Thanks,

is it possible to still buy these bags. i mean an original one, not a handmade replica (although that magnoli one looks superb!) ?

Joey, if you do a bit of basic searching and reading of the forums, you'll find answers to all of your questions several times over. A little reading never hurts anyone. Good luck!

You can contact Kevin Endicott at kevin@endicotts.co.uk
Cheap prices for high quality original bags, why buying a replica when you can have an original for a good price??

Yes.

Searching is half the fun! Use these puppies when googling and see what you can find; gas mask bag, gasmask bag, respirator bag, respirator haversack, pattern 37 shoulder bag, small box respirator bag, MkVII, Mk VII... and so on and so forth.

Great research guys!
It's the same thing with the A2 Jacket.
I remember Tim Allen wearing one in the TV-Series Home Improvement..and Sigourney Weaver in Aliens.Right?

Sigourney wore a modified A2 made by Wested Leather Co. (which by the way also made the jacket for the Nostromo in Alien, I saw the pictures when I was at Wested).
There should be a thread about it around.
Sorry for the little off topic
