Historical Context: The Significance of These Jackets
WW2-era leather jackets were practical pieces, but they also represented resilience, identity and a connection to the wearer’s ancestors. For Japanese aviators, soldiers and civilians of all stripes, leather jackets were rugged, functional garments and blank canvases for self-expression.
Two Works Inspired by Japanese Artistry
Japanese art is known for its complexity and deep rooted messages. The jackets were often painted with decorative traces of Japanese culture, including cherry blossom (renewal), dragons (power), and kanji scripts, turning them into sculpted works of art to wear.
A Blend of Function and Style
The jackets were made to brave the elements, but to also have a distinct aesthetic. Mixing utility and whimsy, they were iconic of the period.
