The outer face features a classic, quintessential *sukajan* motif: a roaring tiger under a moonlit night sky, rendered on a black-and-off-white monochrome body. Based on a mid-1950s original design, the embroidery makes full use of nuanced stitch work to realistically capture the tiger’s flowing fur and powerfully muscled physique. Set against black satin fabric, the high-contrast color scheme gives the piece an imposing, almost lunging sense of motion and intensity. The “JAPAN” lettering across the back faithfully reproduces an oriental-style font that remains highly sought after among vintage collectors.
The reversible side depicts a dragon with an elongated body drifting through the open sky, partially concealed among clouds. While the embroidery is primarily executed in black, layers of gray thread are applied to the dragon’s face and along the edges of its scales to enhance depth and dimensionality. The dragon’s mane, streaming in the wind, is delicately expressed through fine horizontal stitch work, lending a refined sense of movement. This side features the so-called “reverse color arrangement,” in which the underarm portions of the sleeves are darker than the body. The striking contrast between the white base fabric and the black dragon embroidery further accentuates the dramatic presence of the design.

Product Details

ACETATE SOUVENIR JACKET
Among souvenir jackets, this is the most classic configuration: a fully reversible design with acetate fabric used on both sides. In the immediate postwar era, many original sukajan jackets were made from acetate—a material outside wartime rationing controls that offered a refined, silk-like luster and a sense of luxury despite the scarcity of resources at the time.
Because the jacket is constructed without padding, it can be worn comfortably across seasons. The fluid drape unique to acetate further enhances its appeal, giving the garment a distinctive elegance that sets it apart from heavier, insulated styles.
