• This souvenir jacket has been reproduced by "Buzz Rickson's" and "KOSHO&CO. (Tailor Toyo)" as the collaboration item, based on vintage. In the 1950s, many embroidery shops near U.S. military bases in Japan were renowned for their excellent embroidery techniques. American soldiers stationed in Japan frequently ordered custom “Sukajan” (Souvenir Jackets) from these shops. The favorable exchange rate at the time made these elaborate embroideries affordable for soldiers. The 334th Fighter-Bomber Squadron of the 4th Fighter-Bomber Wing, stationed in Japan during the Korean War, is featured on this tour jacket. The front boasts the owner "Chuck’s" unit insignia, slightly different from the official patch, showcasing local craftsmanship. The rare embroidered year on the left sleeve and the detailed back embroidery with the F-86 Sabre, representing peace in Korea, America, and Japan, highlight the jacket’s historical significance. The reversible side features vibrant embroidery on a silver background, with a map of Japan and a Maiko (apprentice geisha) standing out. One of the city names on the map, HAGASAKI, should have been “NAGASAKI”, but the misspelling is duplicated exactly as it appears on the original vintage jacket.
