The SUKAJAN look caught our attention in the second half of the runway.
It’s more familiar now and is said to stand for the Yokosuka jumper, but do you know how it was born in the first place?
There are various theories about its origin, but it is said to have started after World War II, when American soldiers stationed in the Yokosuka area as Allied troops occupying Japan ordered embroidered clothes from tailor stores as souvenirs.
The shopping street called “Dobu-zaka-dori” in Yokosuka, the birthplace of the SUKAJAN, has a unique atmosphere of a fusion of American and Japanese cultures, and is still lined with SUKAJAN stores today.
Sukajans were born more than half a century ago from the fusion of American and Japanese cultures.
The classic features have reconstructed and the original embroidered SUKAJAN is now available in three colors: black, blue, and green.
The delicate yet bold processing using hand-bleaching gives it a worn-in look.
Wear it with satin shorts to add a touch of mode to your styling.
