Genuine British Army Issue MTP Infantry Bergen
Short Back - Grade A+
The Gold Standard of Military Load Carrying.
Built to survive the toughest environments on Earth, the British Army MTP (Multi-Terrain Pattern) Infantry Bergen is widely regarded as one of the most robust and versatile rucksacks ever produced. Whether you are a serving soldier, a cadet on a field exercise, or a bushcraft enthusiast planning a long-haul expedition, this Bergen is the ultimate workhorse.
Designed to carry substantial weight over long distances, this pack utilizes a tried-and-tested internal aluminium frame system that distributes load evenly across the back, reducing fatigue during endurance marches.
Why Choose the MTP Infantry Bergen?
1. Unrivaled Capacity & Modularity With a massive 90-liter main compartment, this Bergen swallows gear with ease. It comes equipped with the iconic zip-on/zip-off side pouches (often called "Rocket Pouches"). These add an extra 10 liters each, bringing your total capacity to approximately 110-120 liters. Need a lighter day sack? Zip the two side pouches together to create a standalone patrol pack (yoke required).
2. Battle-Proven Durability Constructed from 1000 Denier Cordura, this rucksack is resistant to tears, abrasions, and water. It is built to military specification (Mil-Spec) standards, including IRR (Infra-Red Reflective) treatment to minimize visibility through night-vision equipment.
3. Combat-Ready Comfort The "Long Back" or "Short Back" options (check availability) ensure a tailored fit for your torso length. The heavily padded back system features airflow channels to keep you cool, while the padded waist belt and shoulder straps ensure the pack stays secure, even when moving tactically.
