Jackman Jackets & Tops at Jeanstore brings together Japanese-made everyday layers shaped by sporting heritage, careful construction and a deep respect for craft. The brand’s story began in 1949, when Mitsugu Tanabe founded the Tanabe Meriyasu factory in Fukui, Japan. Driven by a passion for baseball, Tanabe started by producing baseball stirrup stockings inspired by those worn by visiting American teams after the war, developing new machines in pursuit of a better result and laying the foundations for the quality that still defines Jackman today.
The modern Jackman brand continues that same spirit of precision and patience. Each piece is still made in the original factory, where vintage machines are used when slower production creates a better finish and a more enduring garment. That connection to Japanese manufacturing heritage gives the collection a quiet confidence, with clothing that feels considered, durable and easy to wear.
Our Jackman Jackets & Tops collection includes sweatshirts, T-shirts, knitwear and casual upper layers designed for regular use. Expect understated shapes, well-made fabrics and thoughtful construction, all rooted in the brand’s blend of sporting influence and Japanese craftsmanship. These are dependable everyday pieces with real substance, made for those who appreciate simplicity, quality and clothing built with care.
