SIDE 1: The Four Auspicious Beasts (四神 - Shishin) Embodying the fierce power of traditional mythology, this side showcases the celestial guardians of the cardinal directions:
龍 (Ryū): Coiled aggressively and tearing down the right panel and sleeve.
白虎 (Byakko): Crouching beneath falling cherry blossoms on the left panel.
鳳凰 (Hō-ō): Spreading its majestic, flowing tail feathers across the upper back.
玄武 (Genbu): The mythical serpent/snake emerging from dark waves along the lower hem.
SIDE 2: Goldfish & Flowing Water (金魚流水 - Kingyo Ryūsui) Flip the jacket inside out to reveal a serene, fluid contrast that symbolizes wealth and good fortune:
琉金 (Ryukin Goldfish): Elegantly embroidered fan-tailed goldfish navigating the front panels and back current.
蓮華 (Renga): Deep maroon lotus blossoms anchoring the swirling underwater layout.
流水紋 (Ryūsuimon): Beautifully screen-printed traditional wave graphics running down the contrast champagne-gold satin sleeves.
