Crafted in rich black silk, this elegant vest is adorned with three white \u003ci\u003eMaru ni Kakudachi Izutsu\u003c\/i\u003e (wellhead frame) family crests, a traditional kamon symbolizing stability, strong foundations, and enduring family heritage. The striking contrast of jet black silk and crisp white crests creates a refined, understated look that pairs effortlessly with both modern and classic wardrobes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis vest is modified from a men's formal haori jacket, so it is a bit longer with wider arm holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThere are signs of age with a couple scattered spots, see last photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Japanique Tunic Vest brings the styling of a kimono jacket into contemporary fashion! We simply removed the sleeves of a traditional haori (kimono jacket). The deep armholes allow for great ease of movement and the extra fabric at the shoulder creates almost a cap sleeve. It's a simple, versatile vest to throw on over jeans or to add pattern and style to solid colors underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the haori it started as, the tunic vest is not meant to cross over but should be worn open to reveal a bit of what is worn underneath. If you're looking to add a traditional touch, we do offer the woven ties - called haori himo - that can be hooked into the little fabric loops that you'll find on at the mid-front of the vest. They are sold separately (add a himo pair ($5) option above) and we'll select one that goes with this tunic vest.
