The Vietnamese souvenir jacket was born in the 1960s at the request of American soldiers fighting in the Vietnam War. It is said that the idea came from the soldiers having their parachutes and sleeping bags remade into jackets as a souvenir when they returned safely to their homeland after the war.
This time, the motif is 'Mothra vs. Godzilla', released in 1964, the same era in which the Vietnamese souvenir jacket was born, and the design is an arrangement of the famous vintage parachute drop pattern.
Mothra is embroidered on the right chest of the front, and 'Fuku' (luck) is in gold embroidery on the left chest; and Godzilla, who looks like a rising dragon and has a dynamic look, is embroidered on both arms. He's just so angry! Meanwhile, on the rear of the jacket, the song of Mothra is embroidered in white. A hanging parachutist pig is depicted being carried aloft by Mothra. The humourous embroidery design, typical of SDA, is a must-have for Godzilla and Studio D'Artisan fans.
This is sure to be a useful light outerwear piece for the early spring and early autumn. It goes well with jeans and chinos, and can be worn over a sweatshirt or T-shirt.
