Description: Vintage 1980s Japanese Sashiko Boro Indigo Ken-Dougi Noragi Jacket This remarkable Noragi jacket is a piece of history, originally crafted as a Japanese fencing and martial arts training uniform in the 1980s. The Sashiko-woven fabric, known for its strength and resilience, was also used by firefighters, police officers, and martial artists. In firefighting, it was soaked in water to protect the wearer during rescues—a true testament to its durability. The jacket’s fading, color variation, and signs of wear give it a one-of-a-kind character that reflects its unique past. Please Note: No returns or exchanges. All sales are final.
