*''Japanese'': 陣羽織 ''(jinbaori)''
''Jinbaori'' (military camp ''[[haori]]'') are a style of surcoat typically worn over armor.
Originally a rather simple jacket worn over armor as a protection against the weather, ''jinbaori'' evolved over the course of the [[Sengoku period]] into far more elaborate garments, decorated with various motifs as an expression of the wearer's wealth, power, and aesthetic taste.
