Shobu Pattern Cotton Drawstring Bogu Bag

Made of cotton canvas and secured with a sturdy drawstring, this is a simple and traditionally styled Bogu bag - decorated with the popular Shobu, iris patterns. The bottom corners of the bag are reinforced with synthetic leather to protect the bag from the wear and tear of movement and storage. It is large enough to hold a complete adult-sized Bogu set. The Shobu pattern is a stylish depiction of irises that became popular in the Sengoku period. It has long been associated with warriors and samurai since it symbolizes vitality and strength in Japanese culture. It has been passed on and is still a cherished pattern from Budoka, much like the beloved Tombo dragonfly design. Approximate Dimensions: 40cm x 52cm x 28cm
