Tailor Toyo

Tailor Toyo is a Japanese brand famous for its high-quality souvenir jackets, known as “sukajan”. These jackets were created in the early post-war days of the Second World War. Back then, US soldiers stationed in Japan had their jackets embroidered with the names of their unit, base names or oriental motifs such as eagles, tigers and dragons to make them unique mementos. Later, these jackets were commercialized and sold in military stores (Post Exchanges) worldwide. With a deep understanding of this historical background, Tailor Toyo has been the leading brand of souvenir jackets for over half a century.
