Men's Black Crested HAORI Artistic Papers on Liner
On the outside, this haori is a simple yet elegant black jacket. Five white oak leaf crests indicate its original function as a formal garment.
The woven design on the inner liner, however, may make you wish to display or even wear this jacket inside out.
Four paper shapes float on the golden brown background. Two feature floral geometric motifs, while the other two depict rural landscape. Traditional lucky treasures dance around these artistic images.
