東洋エンタープライズ社(Toyo Enterprises)のTailor Toyo(テーラー東洋 テイラー東洋)ブランドのスカジャン(メンズ スーベニアジャケット)です。

スーベニアジャケット、通称「スカジャン」は戦後間もない頃、日本に駐留していたアメリカ軍兵士の記念品として、鷲・虎・龍などのオリエンタルな柄や、兵士の所属していた部隊などをジャケットに刺繍したのが始まりです。その発祥に関わったのが、東洋エンタープライズの前身である港商(港商商会)です。「テーラー東洋」は1940年代の港商から始まり、1965年に設立された東洋エンタープライズのスカジャンレーベルして、その歴史と経験を継承し続けています。

このスカジャンは中綿なしのリバーシブル仕様で、両面に刺繍で柄が配されています。

素材は表裏両面共にアセテート100%のサテン生地です。両面ともにシルクにような深みのあるマットな光沢感、ソフトな風合い、ドレープ感が特徴の生地です。そして、このスカジャンには当時の素材感を再現した生地が使用されています。生地には、織りムラ、シワ感などのビンテージ感が再現されています。この製品は、ビンテージスカジャンが持つ経年変化の魅力を再現して、ご購入時からヴィンテージさながらの風合いを楽しむことができるスカジャンに仕上げられています。

中綿は詰められていませんので、モコモコ感がなく、すっきりとした着用感になります。また、薄手のライトアウターですので、春先から秋口まで軽く羽織れ、年間を通して、幅広く着用できます。

衿と袖口と裾は、アクリル100%のダブルレイヤー(二重)のライン入りリブ生地で切り替えられています。

フロントはジップアップでの開閉式です。

リバーシブル表側・裏側ともにウエスト部には、三角形の補強生地が付いた両玉縁ポケットが設けられています。

スカジャンの表面は富士山に五重塔、桜や松、鳥居など日本の美しい風景が凝縮されたジャパンマップ柄です。1950年代初期のヴィンテージを再現したもので、無地場が少なく背中全面が刺繍で埋め尽くされた豪華な仕様が特徴です。ブラックのボディに対して白を基調とした日本地図やモチーフのカラフルな色糸が映え、グリーンのリブや赤×白のロープパイピングがアクセントとなった秀逸な1着です。リバーシブル面は晴天を想わせるブルーのボディに金龍が舞う壮大な図案です。表面とは対照的に余白を上手く使った絶妙なバランスの刺繍が特徴です。胸の龍虎は表面と同じ絵柄ですが、色糸の使い方が異なっています。これはヴィンテージが両面とも同じ「刺繍型」を使って作られていたためで、同じ絵柄でも生地の色に合わせて色味を変える当時の刺繍職人のこだわりがうかがえます。

本製品は素材の特性上、非常にデリケートな製品です。生地部分は摩擦、滑脱に弱く、また、色落ち、色焼けによる変色が起きる素材です。刺繍部分は旧式の刺繍技法を用いて再現していますため、打ち込みが甘くデリケートなため、引っ掛かりには十分にご注意ください。手洗い、及び洗濯機のご使用は、型崩れ、色落ち、ほつれ、縮み等の原因となりますのでお避けくださいますようお願い申し上げます。

This lightweight satin Sukajan is produced by Tailor Toyo, a brand of Toyo Enterprise, and is made in China. It is reversible, with embroidery on each side, designed without padding for a sleek look. The Japanese souvenir jacket, also known as a "Sukajan" or "Japanese bomber jacket," has its roots in post-World War II Japan. American soldiers stationed in Japan had these jackets custom-made, featuring intricate oriental designs, such as dragons and tigers, along with the names of their units or bases. These jackets served as unique mementos of their time in Japan. At that time, the company now known as Tailor Toyo (Toyo Enterprises) played a significant role in supplying these jackets to the Post Exchange (PX) stores located on U.S. military bases. Originally named "KOSHO & CO.," this company has been preserving the craftsmanship and tradition of Sukajan since the 1940s. In 1965, Toyo Enterprises was established, continuing this legacy under the Tailor Toyo label. This particular Sukajan is a new creation by Tailor Toyo, carrying on the rich history and meticulous craftsmanship that have made these jackets iconic. This brand-new Sukajan has been designed to capture the timeless charm and character of a vintage piece. From the moment you receive it, you will experience the authentic look and feel of a well-worn classic, all while enjoying the quality of a new product. The fabric of this jacket is made up of 2 layers. This jacket is constructed from a acetate satin outer shell and acetate satin lining shell. This jacket is fully reversible and unfilled, both sides are customized with vintage-style embroidery technique. It features fully reversible, frontal zip closure, contrast raglan sleeves, striped knit ribbed sleeve ends/collar/waistband. And the graphic on this jacket is based on the Early 1950s Style JAPAN MAP x GOLD dragon. This product is offered in Japanese (Asian) sizes, which tend to run slightly smaller than US and EU sizes. For reference, a tagged size Japan M would fit those who typically wear a US/EU size S-M or 36-38. The jacket features a modern fit with a cropped style and shorter length, making it both fashionable and stylish. This lightweight outerwear is perfect for year-round wear, especially in spring and fall.
