You can customize your Plato II with options of your own design or desire CONTACT: John Allcorn - 850-766-4562 The ODYSSEUS I is the largest of the four Odysseus bags. It includes a double thick shoulder strap that attaches to the two "D" rings with detachable swivel snaps. The straps on the "D" rings also attach to the bottom of the bag for greater security. This bag is completely handsewn and made from a pattern I created. The thick leather is either oil or latex dyed, so it is very water resistent. I use a braided thread that is incredibly strong; the handsewing allows the leather to move a bit instead of tearing. There are multiple features of the Odysseus I that make the bag particularly STRONG like the double thick shoulder strap, handles and the straps holding the "D" rings. There is a pocket on one end and a strap on the other for removing the bag from a shelf or "overhead." SIZE: 36" Wide with a 12" Diameter. COST: The base price for this bag is $550.00 BACKGROUND: Odysseus is the best known traveler EVER. Even if you are almost crushed by rocks and turned into a pig, this bag will last through it all - you might, like Odysseus, even fall in love, hopefully with this bag.

Most gussets are 2” but this one is 6” giving you lots of room for more stuff.

Circe and Odysseus lived together for a year. When Odysseus left, Circe reluctantly helped him. CONTACT: John Allcorn - 850-766-4562 |
