In the Greek epic The Odyssey, Ithaca represents the ultimate destination—the home the hero tirelessly journeys toward. I named my shop ithacaplusReel because I believe that in your daily life and profession, you are the hero. And just as every hero has a unique story, we believe your perfect badge reel is out there, waiting to find its hero. Operating from my independent studio in Taiwan, I specialize strictly in fabric-topped badge reels. We intentionally choose to work only with premium fabrics because they bring a soft, tactile warmth and a handcrafted feel to your daily uniform that hard plastics simply can't match. We don't just slap random images onto a badge. Before crafting physical badge reels, I spent over 5 years running a successful online shop designing digital clipart for US professionals. That experience was my "homework." It taught me exactly what kinds of graphics, colors, and themes American nurses, teachers, and frontline workers genuinely connect with. Whether I am drawing an original illustration or curating the perfect pattern, I bring those years of professional digital design expertise into every single fabric topper. What Sets Us Apart? The Hero’s Match: Our designs are waiting to find the hero they belong to, adding a spark of personality to your scrubs, lanyard, or uniform.
