This listing is for a vintage Japanese haori jacket that would have been worn on top of a vintage kimono on a chilly day.  

This haori is a little slice of history.  The design depicts an Edo Period Village, with traditional thatched roof homes lining the hillsides.  The color scheme is a step stronger than “earth tones” but does include a pleasing mix of greens, blues and golds.

It’s hard to believe that the details – all those little black lines on the roofs and trees – were likely done by hand after the houses were created with a stencil.

Haori do not cross over or tie with a sash, like a kimono does - they are meant to be worn open to reveal a bit of what is worn beneath. An optional accessory is the haori himo - little woven ties that are hooked to the little fabric loops that you'll find at the mid-front of the haori - but they are sold separately. We'll select one that goes with this haori if you pick the Add A Himo Pair option above. To choose a pair of our fancier himo, CLICK HERE.
