Fusion of Japanese and Western styles

We want to bring Japanese traditional clothing into everyday life as something more familiar. This jacket is not only for wearing with samue but also for wearing with everyday clothes. This is a haori-type thick sashiko jacket recommended for fall and winter.


The thick fabric is warm just by wearing a single piece. It has a luxurious and supple texture and a rustic sense of dignity.

We hope you will wear this jacket for going out and relaxing in comfort.

 

BACKSTITCHING WITHOUT SHOULDER STRIPPING

3025 samue jacket

A kimono is cut from a single piece of cloth with scissors at the minimum necessary position and then tailored so that a single piece of cloth connects the front and back.


The making of Wasuian's jacket follows this method. It would be much easier if the shoulders were sewn into small parts like in Western clothing, but this would change the silhouette of the shoulders, which is unique to traditional Japanese garments.


Also, a seam is created on the back by using a backstitch. In the olden days, Japanese people believed that the seams of the backstitching had the power to prevent evil from creeping up from behind or entering through the back. Wasuian's jacket continues this tradition.

 Notes on size selection

Due to the slow weave for softening, and the nature of natural cotton fibers, this product tends to shrink after washing. The product can shrink more or less depending on the washing method and frequency, but if it is used for a long time, the length of the top and pants will shrink. If you're wondering which size to choose, choose the larger one.

 What is “Sashiko-ori”?

"Sashiko-ori" is one of the weaving methods of fabric for reinforcement and decoration. This technique was used in firefighting clothing in the past and is still used in martial arts clothing such as judo and kendo even today.

In the past, "sashiko" were manually stitched one by one, but later were made easier through mechanical methods, and textiles were developed so that the pattern of the sashiko would appear.

The sturdy weave and rustic look make it a perfect fit for autumn and winter outfits.

What are Haori?

Haori (羽織) is a traditional Japanese hip- or thigh-length jacket worn over a kimono. The Haori is worn for a variety of purposes, including as part of formal attire, as protection against cold and dust, and as fashionable clothing.

The Haori was originally worn by men, and its name is said to have originated from the "Jinbaori," a Haori worn over armor on the battlefield. In modern-day Japan, Haoriare worn by both men and women. Try adding a piece of Haori for a one-rank higher look.

Haori by Wasuian

In addition to the traditional haori, Wasuian offers sleeveless ponchos and samue-style garments with a double layer of warmth around the stomach.

Our Haori and Jacket are made without padding and are based on the traditional design. Designed for comfort, these fashionable Haori let you incorporate Japanese traditions into modern casual outfits. Wear one over jeans and a t-shirt, match it with your samue, or coordinate it with samue pants — the possibilities are endless!

Wasuian’s Commitment: The Beauty of the Collar

The collar has always been an essential part of the kimono, as is evident in the idiom "Eri Wo Tadasu" ("straighten the collar"). For our haori, we avoid placing stitches on the front of the collar by using the sophisticated drop stitching technique. It relies on the fingertips to apply the sewing machine to the edge of the collar, just 1 to 2 mm away. Our artisans carefully make every garment by hand. We strive to balance preserving the essence and techniques of traditional Japanese clothing while evolving the designs to match modern lifestyles.
