About this piece
The thunder god across the back of a navy flight jacket, wind god in front
The chest of this bomber carries the wind god, green, with his sack of wind and a swirl of grey cloud and blossom running across the zip, and the back carries the thunder god, red-brown with a grey mane, standing in his ring of gold drums with the sticks raised. The jacket is a flight jacket in navy rather than black: matte navy nylon, navy ribbing, a metal zip, a zipped pocket on the left sleeve.
It is the only navy bomber in the range, and the navy does something the black does not: it makes the red god warm and the gold drums glow, the way a dark blue wall does behind a painting.
The name, Kamon, is the family crest, and the ring of drums round the god is drawn like one, the gold tomoe on each drum the crest of the thunder itself.
The gods are embroidered, not printed, in satin stitch with the gold kept metallic. The body is a matte nylon blend with a light quilted lining, the cloth of a flight jacket rather than a souvenir one, with ribbed knit at the collar, cuffs and hem, a metal zip, a slash pocket at each hip and a zipped pocket on the left sleeve. It washes cold, inside out, and dries flat.
Wear it over a white tee and white trousers, as in the photograph, or over navy with dark denim for a jacket that is all one blue with two gods on it. It goes with everything that has no pattern, and with a navy coat over it in January, which no black jacket manages.
From across a street it is a navy bomber with a red figure on the back. From close the god has every strand of his mane, the drums their tomoe, and the wind god on the chest his sack and his cloud. It is the sukajan for the person who wears navy and wants the screens.
A flight jacket differs from a satin sukajan in the cloth and the collar: the nylon is matte and takes the weather, and the ribbing is plain and closes at the neck. It is cut a little slimmer, so a knit goes under it in the cold.
Sizes run from S to 3XL. It is cut to Asian sizing and runs small, so take one size up from your usual. Between two sizes, take the larger.
Questions about the sukajan jacket
What is a sukajan?
The Japanese souvenir jacket: a satin bomber with a ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, embroidered on the back and chest with dragons, tigers, koi, cranes and gods, first sewn in Yokosuka for American sailors after the war. Ours keep the cut and the embroidery; a few are the same idea on a flight jacket, a denim jacket or a velvet-look cloth, and their pages say so.
Is the embroidery real?
Yes. Every motif is embroidered, not printed, in dense satin stitch. That is why the jackets weigh what they do and why the back catches the light.
Is it reversible?
No. None of our sukajan is reversible. The lining is a lining.
Does it run small?
Yes. Our pieces are cut to Asian sizing, which runs smaller than US sizing. Take one size up from your usual; between two sizes, take the larger. Measurements taken flat are in the size guide.
What is it made of?
A satin blend for the classic sukajan, a matte nylon blend for the flight-jacket versions, washed denim for the one denim jacket, and a velvet-look or leather-look synthetic where the page says so. Never silk.
Is it made in Japan?
No. It is a Japanese design, made in Asia. We say so on every page.
How do I wash it?
Cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle, and dry flat; never tumble an embroidered jacket. The leather-look jacket is wiped, not washed.
What we sell, and what we don't
Japanese designs, made in Asia. Cotton, linen or polyester as stated on each piece, never silk. We say so on every page, because the alternative is selling you a word instead of a garment.
