Vintage 1980s Harajuku Mother Leather Soccer Varsity Jacket - Large (42-44)

Made in the 1980s, this Harajuku Mother leather varsity jacket embodies the fearless design of Japan’s Harajuku streetwear scene. Blending sports culture with street fashion, it features striking red, yellow, and black leather panels, with an oversized soccer pitch appliqué on the back. This jacket perfectly captures the energy of vintage sportswear, symbolising the rise of bold, statement fashion during that era.

Crafted during the height of Japan’s 1980s and early 1990s sports fashion revolution, it combines elements of American varsity jackets, European football culture, and Japanese craftsmanship. Featuring stitched soccer ball motifs on the sleeves and back, this jacket represents that unique fusion—a piece likely worn by sports fans, fashion-forward youth, or collectors of standout outerwear. The removable hood and ribbed varsity cuffs add versatility, while the genuine cowhide leather ensures durability and structure.

This jacket has been professionally restored using specialist leather cleaning techniques. The leather has been cleaned and conditioned, preserving its bold colour-blocking while ensuring the jacket remains durable and strong. The removable hood and all original hardware have been serviced for smooth functionality, and the lining remains in good condition with only minimal age-related wear.
