Tailor Toyo Vintage Pink Tiger Sukajan, Tora and Hot Rod Chevy Embroidery, Souvenir Jacket, Size L

Tailor Toyo sets the tora, the tiger of classic Yokosuka embroidery, beside a hot rod Chevy on this vintage pink sukajan. It is the souvenir jacket at its most exuberant, where Japanese emblem and American car culture share one embroidered surface.

The Piece

The tiger, or tora, has been a central sukajan motif since the postwar years, a symbol of courage and strength, and Tailor Toyo is the house most closely associated with that Yokosuka tradition. On this vintage jacket the tiger is joined by a hot rod Chevy, a nod to the American car culture that runs through Japanese Americana, in a pink-toned composition made for the car lover.
