The Japanese souvenir jacket (aka Sukajan) has a fascinating origin story! It traces back to the post-World War II era when soldiers stationed in Japan brought back special custom-made jackets adorned with beautiful Japanese motifs like dragons and hawks. These jackets became treasured mementos for themselves and their families upon returning to America, symbolizing the incredible cultural exchange between Japan and the United States. Nowadays, Sukajan jackets are iconic, representing the perfect fusion of Japanese and American influences, showcasing a truly unique blend of East and West.
