[TAILOR TOYO "TT15548" Late 1960s Style Reversible Vietnam Jacket “VIETNAM DRAGON” × “PARACHUTE”]
The Viet-Jean is a popular item at Tailor Toyo every year.
Like the Sukajan, which was created in postwar Japan, the Viet-Jean is a souvenir jacket that was created during the Vietnam War in the 1960s and 1970s.
Two types of fabric are mainly used: cotton twill or a camouflage poncho liner, and the pattern is embroidered with matte thick colored thread.
This reversible Viet-Jean was custom-made by a US soldier stationed at Binh Thuy Air Base in Vietnam between 1967 and 1968.
The sleeves and back have the same design of dragon embroidery, but different sizes.
The chest features the American flag and the South Vietnamese Army flag, and the word "HAPPINESS" is written instead of the Chinese character "fuku".
The font of "viet-nam" on the back is also unique, making it a very rare specification even among vintage items.
The reversible side is made of nylon ripstop camouflage fabric.
The parachute troops are embroidered on the shirt using colored threads that have faded over time.
The armholes are slightly narrower, so it is a simpler item than it looks, and you can enjoy it with your outfit.
The outer surface is cotton, and the reversible surface is nylon, so it feels good against the skin, and you can enjoy the texture, feel, and feel.
