Vintage Japanese Firefighter Jacket – 1960s Sashiko Hanten with Bold Kanji Back

Step into the world of Japanese firefighting heritage with this vintage hanten from the 1960s. Traditionally worn by hikeshi (firefighters) in local communities, this jacket features bold white kanji characters on the back, representing the brigade or town it once served.

Crafted from thick sashiko-stitched cotton, the jacket is both visually striking and structurally durable. The distinctive sashiko weave adds texture and depth, while the natural wear and fading over time enhance its vintage charm.

Whether worn as a statement piece or displayed as a cultural artifact, this fireman’s jacket embodies the spirit of everyday resilience and community in mid-century Japan.
