This mid-1950s style piece features an all-black body, extending from the main panels to the ribbing, with a white dragon depicted across the jacket. The dragon’s long, winding form appears as if it is emerging from and disappearing into the clouds. Soaring through the open sky with its mane flowing in motion, the dragon is rendered with dimensional embroidery using mainly white-toned threads. Subtle accents, such as the yellow outlining and the red of the tongue, add striking contrast and give the design a powerful presence.
The reversible side is distinguished by a pink body, a color rarely seen even among vintage examples. The embroidery features the highly popular “Tiger Head” motif, known for its bold depiction of a tiger’s face. The expression is executed with remarkable precision, with the stitch length carefully varied again and again to delicately portray each strand of fur along the cheeks and mane. The quality of the work clearly reflects the hand of a highly skilled craftsman.
The black ribbing, chosen to complement the coloring of the tiger, tightens the overall impression and brings balance to the piece. Combining the strength of classic souvenir jacket imagery with refined color composition and meticulous embroidery, this is a jacket with a distinctly sophisticated character.

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.
