Oriental Bomber Jackets

[Gunza]

I've seen these on a few celebs embroidered with Dragons or Tigers... like Angelina Jolie in Tomb Raider Cradle to Life...

anyone know where to get a jacket like this, any websites or shops?

as you can tell it has a more urban look too it, like a baseball jacket (w/hemmed arm cuffs & neck) but with an oriental twist to it...

the article talks about the designers bringing it out on the runway but I searched all over catalogs and stuff, can't find any... at least not on english sites... maybe japanese sites have them but I can't read japanese... sucks....

 

[MissFire]

ah! i see. maybe you can find that style and get the dragon embroidered on it?

I've seen people wearing those in NYC. Definitely check out martial arts supply shops.

Miss Croft's Oriental Jacket's were from Gucci's S/S menswear show. She's androgonous and the jacket's are unisex so it looks good on Lara.

I bought a silk bomber jacket with oriental prints, that looks a lot like Gucci's womens collection, but actually, its from Zara, and it looks great... now im afraid I wont wear it that much here...

I have a very cool asian bomber jacket which i treasure very much.

It was my dad's when he was in the Air Force, stationed in Korea in the 80s. It's dark blue, has an embroidered dragon on the back with KOREA printed on top, a sheepskin hood, and on one sleeve it has an American Flag patch,a nd on the other shoulder a Korean flag patch.

I love it =)!
