• "This is a stylish vintage indigo kendo jacket which has embroidered kanji in orange and a label on the lower front left hem. It has a wrap-over front with a tie closure and has a 14cm centre back slit. Kendogi are jackets made for the martial art called ‘Kendo
• which is a form swordsmanship using wooden swords ’Shinai. These jackets are made to withstand the demands of fighting and intense movement
• and are usually made of thickly ’Sashiko’ style stitched indigo cotton. The indigo colour tends to become nicely faded with age and certain wear
• and often are embroidered with the surname of the original owner Kataura. People wear Hakama trousers with the jacket as Kendo uniform. It will make a great casual jacket with jeans or any other denim or non denim items! The jacket fits me. I'm usually a UK size 8-10. It has certain wear
• but as a whole
• it is in good condition for the age. Enjoy real vintage textile taste of Japan! Please check the detailed photos."
