Scaffolders & mail pouches

Where are all the scaffolders getting the delivery pouches from? Whenever I see a scaffold lorry there is more often than not a couple of pouches full of the scoffold clips.

Are they ex posties or have they "acquired" them other ways?

They will have been "acquired" as you say. Has/had a reputation for being good gear. I know there is a Miltary surplus store in the UK that sells bags very similar. Not sure they are branded though. Used to see work lads with the old Storm jackets too.
Also I've been amazed at some of the RM stuff I've seen on Ebay in the past...
