​スーベニアジャケット
souvenir Jacket

After World War II, the Souvenir Jacket became popular as a souvenir for American soldiers.

The embroidery, which is one of its most distinctive features, has a history of being applied by craftsmen in Kiryu, Gunma Prefecture, a city known for its textile industry.

Yokoburi embroidery, which produces three-dimensional, beautifully detailed embroidery, is an advanced technique that is the pride of Japan.

Kirijum's Souvenir Jackets, which incorporate historical and traditional techniques, are sure to fascinate not only Japan but also the world.

design

The standard silhouette is based on the history of the baseball jacket, which was familiar to Americans and was tailored based on it.

The ribbing, sleeve changes, and unique embroidery design will always be loved by many people.

 

A wide range of sizes (S/M/L/XL) are available so that many people can wear it.

Initially, the jackets were made from silk parachute fabric, but since it became difficult to obtain silk thread due to GHQ material controls, there is a theory that acetate and other materials similar to silk have been used since then.

 

The 100% silk Souvenir Jacket was created not only to reproduce the original Souvenir Jacket, which could not be made at that time, but also to inherit and protect the sericulture and textile industries in Kiryuu.

 

The smooth feel of silk and the luxurious, supple luster of silk will envelop the wearer in a sense of exuberance.

Yokoburi embroidery is a traditional technique.

Only a skilled craftsman can perform this technique.

The embroidery is layered on top of the stitches once sewn, creating a beautiful three-dimensional effect that resembles a painting.
