A Japanese hoodie is worn like any other sweatshirt, but it tells you something: a messenger fox, a theatre demon, a wave from a woodblock print or a bowl of ramen. Our collection brings together hooded sweatshirts in 100% cotton, printed on the front or on the back, from XS to 3XL, in a unisex fit.
- Hooded sweatshirts, a different design on every model
- 100% cotton (except the Shinobi hoodie, with its crossover collar)
- Sizes XS to 3XL, unisex fit, size guide below
- Printed on the front or the back, depending on the model
- Colours vary from one model to another
- Machine wash at 30 °C, inside out
● Which Japanese hoodie should you choose?
Every model carries a design drawn from Japanese culture: animals and creatures, nature and woodblock prints, or nods to food and martial arts. This table covers the models in the collection.

● Foxes, demons and dragons: creatures from folklore
The kitsune, the fox, is the messenger of Inari, the rice deity: you'll find it carved in stone at shrine entrances. It inspires our Kitsune, Yako — a more masculine version — and Yuko sweatshirts, the last one focused on a fox's head.
Oni are grimacing demons, everywhere in folk tales and theatre masks: they are the designs on the Oni and Akuma sweatshirts.
The Japanese dragon, ryū, has nothing to do with its European cousin: long like a snake, wingless, it is tied to water and rain. It appears on the Ryu and Tatsu no Tori sweatshirts.
In the same spirit, the Suijin sweatshirt evokes the water deity, while Kensei and Ninpo point to the world of the sword and of the ninja.
● Flowers, moon and prints: designs from nature
The cherry blossoms on the Sakura sweatshirt stand for fleeting beauty: they last only a few days, which Japan celebrates every spring with hanami. The Hana sweatshirt takes up the floral theme, and Tsuki the moon, a constant presence in Japanese poetry.
The Kanagawa sweatshirt features The Great Wave off Kanagawa, Hokusai's print published around 1831 and probably the best-known Japanese image in the world. Koiro shows koi carp, symbols of perseverance, and Umiramen a bowl of ramen, for something lighter. The Hoshimi sweatshirt portrays a geisha, a figure of the Edo and Kyoto pleasure districts, trained in singing, dance and the shamisen.
● The Shinobi hoodie and its crossover collar
The Shinobi hoodie stands apart: it is an oversized hoodie with a very high crossover collar that, pulled up, covers the lower half of your face like a ninja mask, and folds down into a wide scarf collar.
Its construction is different too: thick fleece, dropped shoulders, kangaroo pocket and tonal embroidery, in heather grey or black, from S to XXL. The other hoodies in the collection are printed cotton, in a straight cut, from XS to 3XL.
● Size guide
The fit is unisex and true to size: take your usual size. The measurements below are taken on the garment laid flat, in centimetres, and the “recommended height” column gives you a guide based on your build.
| Size | Chest | Length | Recommended height |
|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 105 cm | 62 cm | 160 to 165 cm |
| S | 109 cm | 64.5 cm | 165 to 170 cm |
| M | 113 cm | 67 cm | 170 to 175 cm |
| L | 117 cm | 69 cm | 175 to 180 cm |
| XL | 121 cm | 71 cm | 180 to 185 cm |
| 2XL | 125 cm | 72.5 cm | 185 to 190 cm |
| 3XL | 129 cm | 73.5 cm | 190 to 195 cm |
If you are between two sizes, take the larger one for a roomier drape. The Shinobi hoodie has its own size guide, from S to XXL, with a deliberately oversized cut.
● Fabric and care
- Turn the hoodie inside out before washing: it is the best way to protect the print.
- Machine wash at 30 °C, with similar colours.
- No tumble drying: it shrinks the cotton and cracks the print.
- No iron on the design: iron inside out if you need to.
- No bleach or harsh stain remover on the print.
● Giving a Japanese sweatshirt as a gift

● FAQ: Japanese sweatshirts
What fabric are the Japanese hoodies made of?
The pieces in this collection are hooded sweatshirts in 100% cotton, printed on the front or the back depending on the model. The Shinobi hoodie is the exception: an oversized hooded sweatshirt in thick fleece, with a crossover collar worn up as a mask or folded down as a scarf collar.
Do the hoodies have a hood?
Yes, every model in the collection is a hooded sweatshirt. The Shinobi goes further with its high crossover collar, which can be pulled up as a mask or folded down into a wide scarf collar.
Which size should I choose?
The fit is unisex and true to size: take your usual size. The size guide gives the measurements of the garment laid flat, from XS (105 cm chest) to 3XL (129 cm), with a recommended height for each size. Between two sizes, take the larger one for a roomier drape.
Are the hoodies unisex?
Yes, the cut is unisex and runs from XS to 3XL. Only the designs lean more masculine or feminine, such as the Yako sweatshirt, a more masculine version of the fox design.
How do I wash a printed hoodie?
Turn it inside out before washing, wash at 30 °C with similar colours and avoid the tumble dryer, which shrinks the cotton and cracks the print. If you iron it, do so inside out, never directly on the design.
What do the designs mean?
Each model takes an element of Japanese culture: the kitsune, the fox messenger of Inari; the oni, demons of folk tales; the ryū, a dragon tied to water; cherry blossoms and their fleeting beauty; Hokusai's Great Wave off Kanagawa; koi carp, symbols of perseverance; and also a geisha, a fox head and a bowl of ramen.
How is the Shinobi hoodie different from the others?
The Shinobi is an oversized hoodie with a high crossover collar that covers the lower half of the face, available from S to XXL in heather grey or black. The other hoodies are printed cotton, in a straight cut, from XS to 3XL, each with its own Japanese design.
Are the prints on the front or the back?
It depends on the model. The Kanagawa, Koiro, Yako and Hoshimi hoodies have the design on the back, the others are printed on the front. The placement is stated on each product page and shown in the photos.
Is a Japanese hoodie a good gift?
Yes, it is one of the easiest gifts to get right for anyone who loves Japanese culture, manga or anime: all you need is their size, the design does the rest. Sizes XS to 3XL cover most builds.
Are the colours the same on every model?
No, the available colours vary from one model to another. Each product page lists the colours on offer and shows how the print looks on each of them.
Can I return a hoodie if the size doesn't fit?
Yes. You have 60 days to return your hoodie if it is not right for you or if the size doesn't fit. Shipping is tracked and our customer support team is happy to answer your questions before and after your order.
