Pouch 1821: The “must” to honor 200th anniversary of Greek Revolution

A special accessories to honor and celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Greek Revolution 1821 against the Ottoman occupation: a pouch in from of Foustanella with a twist. Inspired from the traditional pleated skirt-like garment that the majority of the mainland heroes of the Greek Revolution wore at that time.

The cute bag is a product of a Greek brand, of course, and is reportedly sold at a price little bit below 400 euros.

With the shops closed due to the pandemic-lockdown restrictions, the innovative pouch may have gone unnoticed… If it wasn’t for the President of Greece 1821-2021 Committee Gianna Angelopoulou-Daskalaki who attended a celebration in Mani, on Wednesday.

The President was wearing a attire with elements from the traditional costume of Mani and held the matching revolutionary bag.

The pouch is a much better must than the ideas in previous years that proposed all Greek men to grow a mustache to honor the 200th anniversary of the Greek Revolution.

PS thank goodness, they didn’t…
