This early-1950s style souvenir jacket makes a powerful impression with its striking “reverse color” body, combining orange and black, with the under-sleeve panels finished in a deeper shade than the main body. In contrast, the embroidery is executed in monochrome threads reminiscent of traditional sumi-e ink painting, depicting an eagle with its wings spread wide as it rises from the waves. The ribbing is also carefully composed in black with yellow and white lines, giving the entire jacket a strong sense of visual unity.

The reversible side features a design known as “Dragon Head,” portraying the head of a dragon in remarkable detail. Its mane spreads outward in a radial motion, creating a vivid sense of movement and energy. Against the wine-red satin body, the pale green dragon and the thunderclouds embroidered in colorful threads stand out beautifully. The dragon and tiger motifs on the chest are rendered in full-body form, and the exquisitely balanced embroidery is the kind of work that only highly skilled craftsmen can achieve.

Product Details

ACETATE SOUVENIR JACKET

Among souvenir jackets, this is the most standard reversible style, made with acetate fabric on both sides.
In the years following World War II, many original sukajan jackets were made from acetate, a material that was not subject to the same postwar material controls and was valued for its refined, silk-like sheen. Its smooth surface and elegant luster give the jacket a distinctive presence, while still retaining the casual spirit and bold character that define the souvenir jacket.
Because it is made without batting, the jacket can be worn comfortably across a wide range of seasons. The lightness of the fabric also creates a beautiful, fluid drape, giving the garment a relaxed yet refined silhouette when worn.
With its reversible construction, acetate body, and timeless sukajan character, this jacket reflects both the heritage of postwar American casual culture in Japan and the careful craftsmanship that Japanese brands continue to bring to classic vintage-inspired garments.
