This unique WW2 Japanese Army aviation jacket has been altered from its original form into a waist-length coat, likely repurposed post-war for civilian use by a woman. The jacket retains its original faux fur lining, providing warmth, and features a pit-to-pit measurement of approximately 21 inches, as shown in the provided images. The buttons and remaining structure suggest its military origin, while the cut-down design highlights its transition to a practical civilian garment.

The faux fur material is intact and adds a striking detail to the overall piece. This item is a fascinating representation of how wartime clothing was repurposed in post-war Japan, blending functionality with necessity. It offers a glimpse into the resourceful adaptations of military surplus after the conflict.

Perfect for collectors of Japanese militaria, this jacket is a conversation piece that reflects history and ingenuity. Please review the photographs for condition and details.
