Pro Tip:
The souvenir jacket, known as a sukajyan in Japanese, was a popular trend that took place at the end of WWII. Men and women who had served in the war would have their military-issued garb adorned with local patterns, designs, and even maps of the area they had served in. The trend began in the American Yokosuka base in Japan and quickly spread to other countries around the world.
