This vintage Happi coat was worn by the Women’s Firefighting Cooperation Squad, active in local disaster prevention efforts during the Showa–Heisei period.

Crafted from rare deep navy cotton with traditional line designs, this one-of-a-kind piece exudes a nostalgic retro Showa atmosphere. The tie closure is particularly rare, making it even more unique.

As a representation of Japan’s classic workwear, this Happi coat has recently gained recognition and demand in the international vintage fashion market. Collectors and fashion brands interested in traditional Japanese textiles such as Nara workwear, Hanten jackets, and similar garments often view this as a Japan vintage collectible, appreciating its rarity and unique design.

Made of durable cotton, the coat has softened over time, developing a rich depth of color that exemplifies true vintage charm. It can be layered over hoodies or shirts for modern casual styling, naturally integrating into contemporary fashion.

The sleeves and hem lines add a stylish accent, enhancing the wearer's individuality. It is also suitable as material for remakes or handmade projects, allowing you to enjoy it in fashion or craft applications.
