The Gakuran is the jacket of the
Japanese scholastic uniform (male).
The classic Gakuran has a high and rigid collar and big brass buttons.
(the pants are black pants).
Japanese scholastic uniforms had appeared at the end
of the nineteenth century,
modeled on the contemporary European uniforms.
In particular the Gakuran derives its aspect from uniforms
of the military cadets of
Prussia.
The correct way to wear the
gakuran is with the collar very straight
and all the buttons closed.
Who instead wears it with open
collar or with open buttons he comes identified like a
"bad guy" in the scholastic context ((you see this
typical figure in many manga and anime).
Of course, it is a male dress but it
could be worn also by a girl (not in a Japanese school obviously!!)
to reach originality and style.
Model TYPE 1 is easy washable and of great resistance (polyester
100%).
