Collection: Tailor Toyo

Tailor Toyo is a brand owned by Japan’s Toyo Enterprises, Ltd., also famous for the army reconstruction brand Buzz Rickson's and the made in Japan part of the Mister Freedom collection.

Tailor Toyo focuses on recreating the the souvenir jackets, also known as a "Sukajan" jacket. These jackets was the result of a mixture of traditional Japanese textiles and crafts and an American baseball jacket. They were commonly made to be reversible. The American soldiers who were stationed in Japan after World War II had these jackets made to bring with them when traveling back home hence the name a souvenir jacket, either to wear for themselves as a memory or as a gift to friends and family. With time the jacket became a symbol of counterculture and has retained its strong aesthetic and is loved by many to this day.
