Its tattoo-art design and honest wear make it a collector's piece with genuine character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYokoburi embroidery is the technique behind the original postwar souvenir jackets of Yokosuka: rather than following a programmed pattern, the operator moves the fabric beneath a swinging needle, building each motif freehand. The method links this jacket to the craft that gave the sukajan its reputation, and its tattoo-art imagery places it in the yanki and yakuza-fashion wardrobe in which the souvenir jacket found a second life. Beyond being a collector's item, it is simply a very good vintage jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yokoburi machine embroidery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e L (manufacturer's tag)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximate, in centimeters, keyed to the photographed measuring guide: A 68 cm · B 55 cm · C 83 cm · D 49 cm · E 45 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVintage condition, with some stains and thread runs consistent with its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeasuring Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo jacket types with different measuring guides are shown in the photographs; refer to the guide matching this jacket to read measurements A to E correctly, and compare them with a jacket that already fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is examined and documented in Japan before dispatch and is offered with the Japonista authenticity guarantee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDelivery from Japan\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked by hand in Japan and shipped insured and tracked by EMS or an equivalent express service.
