Hapi coats originated during the Edo period (1607-1867) in Japan and have served different purposes thru-out history. Traditionally the emblem on the back could be a family crest or they were sometimes worn by shop keepers to advertise their businesses. This is a vintage item and imperfections are to be expected.
