MONACO SHARK CLUB CHATURANGA SHARK 1900 BACKPACK

[Split]Height: 16”
Width: 11.5”
Depth: 6”
This Unique Backpack Is An Instant Classic. Drawing Inspiration From A Boxy Shaped Backpack That Travelers And Hikers Used To Use As One Of The Earlier Designs Of Backpacks In The Early 1900’S. Reinforcing It With A Wooden Frame And Checkered Shark Pattern And Luxe Interior Design For The Modern Adventurer. I Call It The CHATURANGA SHARK To Pay Homage To The First Ever Board Game That Featured A CHESS PATTERN Invented In India Called Chaturanga Board Game.. Which Would Evolve Into The CHECKERED PATTERN We All Love And Know In Fashion.
The Chaturanga Is An Old Indian Two-Player Board Game That Was Invented At Least 1,500 Years Ago And Is Believed To Be The Earliest Predecessor Of The Game Of Chess. The Arabians Adapted It To A Game They Called Shatranj, Which Was Later Embraced By The Europeans During The Medieval Period And, After A Few Modifications, Is Now Known As Chess.
