Canteen Kits

 

Our canteen recovering kits provide all the items needed to make your old canteen look brand new or cover a new tin canteen.  The kit is offered in three varieties, each appropriate for a different type of US oblong canteen.

Each kit includes a jean cloth cover in a color of your choice, an appropriate strap, a custom stopper that is a W, W, & Company exclusive product (with appropriate tie), thread and beeswax, as well as full color instructions.

PLEASE NOTE:  We do not sell the various elements of the kits separately.

ALSO:  If you select “no preference” for your choice of cover, you will receive a unique cover of our choosing (possibly one-of-a-kind) made from a variety of jean, satinet, cassimere, or other woolen scrap material we have accumulated over the last few decades.
