Price: $17.99

This US WWII M1910 Canteen Cover is built to the same pattern as wartime issue. The body is sewn from durable light OD canvas and lined with wool felt to cushion and insulate the standard U.S. one-quart canteen and cup. The twin, reinforced closure flaps use the correct lift-the-dot snaps for fast, secure access. A proper metal M1910 wire hook on the back attaches directly to grommeted U.S. web belts and field gear.

The cover is stamped “U.S.” on the front and “SEMS 1944” on the reverse for an authentic WWII appearance. It’s an ideal piece for WWII reenactors, collectors, living-history interpreters, or anyone setting up a period-correct field kit.

Adopted for use with the U.S. military’s one-quart canteen, the M1910 canteen cover served throughout WWII across the European, Mediterranean, and Pacific theaters. Constructed from olive-drab canvas and lined with wool felt, the cover kept the canteen protected while retaining moisture to cool the contents by evaporation. It mounted using the standardized M1910 hook system for compatibility with U.S. webbing. During WWII, the M1910 cover was issued to all U.S. branches except the Marine Corps, and remained a staple of the soldier’s field gear due to its rugged practicality.
