KB-140-T Persimmon Dyed Horsehide WWII Type One Jacket- Kakishibu
The KB-140-T Persimmon Dyed Horsehide WWII Type I Jacket is a faithful reinterpretation of a later Type I silhouette, elevated through traditional Japanese dyeing and leather craftsmanship. Constructed from robust horsehide and dyed using kakishibu—a natural persimmon tannin—the leather carries a rich, earthy tone that will continue to tan, deepen, and develop character with wear and exposure to light. This living finish ensures that no two jackets age the same. Authentic WWII-era details are preserved throughout, including period-correct laurel metal buttons, while the interior is thoughtfully finished with a cotton/linen body lining for breathability and nylon-lined sleeves for ease of layering. Meticulously made in Japan, the KB-140-T has Y'2's exceptional build quality, resulting in a jacket that rewards long-term wear with a uniquely personal patina.
