>>1673293From what I can tell most backpacks all over the world from 70's and 80's ware very similar, with almost identical frames.
Im pretty sure you could find a very cheap old backpack online, regardless where you live, and do what I did - ditch the old bag & straps, buy some cheap milsurp webbing, and see where it takes you.
I'm in Glorious Imperial Republic Of Poland, so prices are different, but I spent 0$ on frame, 5$ on milsurp webbing, 10$ on old Alice bag, 5$ on having it fixed by tailor (it was ripped). I had to install extra horizontal steel strip to connect the waist belt somehow.
I'm sure you could do the same spending close to nothing.
Pic is some old pack from net. They all the same.
