Dutch Military Issue Sewing Kit

The thought of a soldier sitting in the field and repairing a torn uniform or sewing a button back on a shirt may seem a bit absurd; but truth be told, that was a soldier’s reality. Of course today, a soldier will pay someone else to get the job done and go about his or her day. In an age where labor is often outsourced, trades and other skills are becoming less and less prominent. It is more important now than ever to learn a craft. What better way to begin learning how to sew than with our Dutch military sewing kit?

Originally produced and issued to Dutch soldiers, these sewing kits are military surplus items. The kit itself consists of a fold-over pouch with ties and is presented in a four-colored, disruptive pattern material (DPM), woodland camouflage pattern. When closed, the kit measures approximately 4.5-inches by 3-inches and can fit easily into a shirt pocket, pants pocket or any purse/bag. The inside of the kit has a pouch for housing all of its accessories, as well as a small flap to hold various pins and needles.

It is a great choice for:

- Military personnel

- Hobbyists

- College students

- Tailors/seamstresses

- Survival kits

- Travel kits
