As soon as I saw the Baker Street Bag from Emdom I thought, “Mussette Bag” and it turns out I was right. After some inspiration from “Frank”, they designed it as a modern interpretation of the US 1936 M36 Musette Bag. If you’re not familiar with this WWII icon, it can be seen in a backpack configuration in the series “Band of Brothers” and in sling bag configuration in the movie “Fury”.
The Emdom Baker Street Bag is designed with tons of internal organization capability, making it multipurpose as an everyday carry, range, or bail out bag.
Approximate dimensions: 12″ tall x 12” wide x 5” thick
Approximate weight: 2lbs 9oz
Available in MultiCam, Black, Coyote, Foliage Green, SDI Grey and Sewer Green.

Now this is pretty slick
What’s old is new again.. and it looks amazing.
I want one.
My late father served in North Africa in WWII, he always swore by the ‘Mussette’ Bag, he continued using one through the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s.
He died in 2000.
I was just thinking the same thing. it is a Mussette Bag on steroids…
I inherited a couple originals from my old man.
Do they still make their stuff in China?
Hong Kong
This is a great design, for AR mags, pistol mags, water, medical gear ect. I plan to buy one and keep it with my AR when its in the trunk.
I have to say, I really like EMDOMs design team. They’re definitely an under the radar company.
Nice looking bag, how rain resistant is it?
Since Kifaru quit making their Tailgunners and Scouts, this looks like a hybrid of the two.
As far as rain resistance, it looks to be cordura. Based on that assumption, it’s not going to wet out like cotton, and you can treat it as well, with products like Nikwax. I don’t do that, and as much as I have cordura packs in the wet, I haven’t treated any of them and have no complaints.
I would like to thank all of you for the great comments. The Baker Street Bag was my idea brought to life with the help of EMDOMS.
I was greatly inspired by the bag of old and want a modern version.
As for water proof the interior has an interior lining of light weight nylon which is a different color to help with finding stuff in the bag. The exterior is 1000D nylon.
I use mine for EDC and in the rain things have stayed dry while going from place to place.
If you are going to shoulder carry a lot of weight (we tested with 45lbs) EDOMS should be selling a 2″ padded Shoulder Strap in the future. Also we are working Velcro Rifle Mag inserts.
