Thoughts? I’m thinking of getting one. Anyone own a reproduction from At The Front? https://www.atthefront.com/Aviator-s-Kit-Bag-p/usgkit.htm

I have looked at those and most of them the cotton seems to be dry and many of them have holes and I don’t trust that they could tote any actual weight without ripping… I’d rather beat up a reproduction… Like I say I’m only interested in having one to use as a grocery tote bag because I have tote bags and they can be gotten for cheap but they look hideous and stupid and I want something with a little more style and then the color I like olive drab! Lol! I usually only get about $25 worth of groceries and walk back to my apartment… Literally I could throw a baseball and hit ALDI that’s how close I am so I go over there to get eggs a carton of almond milk some sandwich meat and cheese and some bananas you know just basics and I don’t like going in there with this ;Ed
Mostly everything you have in your office is original, and original WWII bags can be had on EBay for about the same price. Why not get an original ?
Understand completely but I think you’re going to find that the bag is too big and that all of your groceries are going too move around freely inside the bag and become discombobulated. I’m going to send you a photo of a repro bag with the same measurements of an original bag for perspective purposes . It may be of some help for you .$100 for a grocery tote bag is ridiculous I know but… I don’t have a girlfriend so…
Wish it was like that for other prices.I just had an Aldi's bagel with Aldi's cream cheese. Can't beat the prices, especially now. It's like grocery shopping in 2002 instead of 2022.
The kit bag is also a good sports duffel for the kids. It will fit shoulder pads, helmet, cleats, drinks....the works.
