Bernings Sho - Snakeskin Coated Micro Suede Bondage Jacket w/ Removable Fur Hood

Bernings-Sho is a Japanese menswear brand that rose to prominence in the mid-2000s to early 2010s, particularly within the gyaru-o and host fashion scenes centered around Shibuya’s 109 Men’s department store. The brand is known for its bold, nightlife-inspired aesthetic, featuring tight silhouettes, faux leather, metallic accents, faux-fur trims, and layered outfits that appealed to young men working in or influenced by host club culture. The brand positioned itself as a more affordable alternative to high-end host fashion, making flashy, stylish outfits accessible to a broader audience. Bernings-Sho was often sold alongside similar brands like Civarize, Tornado Mart, and Buffalo Bobs, all catering to the visual kei, street-glam, and host-style markets. Its designs echoed the aesthetics of visual kei musicians and nightlife fashion icons, emphasizing drama and sex appeal. Though its popularity has faded with the decline of gyaru-o fashion in the late 00's, Bernings-Sho remains a nostalgic reference point for a key era in Japanese menswear. It reflects a time when Tokyo’s youth culture was driven by bold self-expression, nightlife status, and subcultural identity.

This bondage jacket by Bernings Sho is a standout piece for anyone looking to add a bold, snakeskin-accented statement to their wardrobe. It features six functional pockets—two zippered for secure storage, two flapped for added style and utility, and two open hand pockets for easy access and warmth. Ribbed knit panels along the neck, waist, wrists, and ribcage provide both comfort and a snug, contoured fit, enhancing movement and shape retention. Belt loops and a built-in strap tightener offer optional waist cinching for a more defined silhouette. Bondage straps around the wrists add a rebellious, streetwear-inspired flair while allowing for adjustable cuff tension. The double gimmick zipper system, including one with a double-slider mechanism, adds visual edge and versatile styling options for ventilation or layering. Faux leather piping outlines the jacket for a refined contrast and structural reinforcement. Made from micro suede like material with a snakeskin coating, the outer shell delivers a tactile, exotic look while remaining soft and flexible. Custom Bernings Sho-branded hardware finishes the design with a signature touch, showcasing the brand’s commitment to detail and host-inspired fashion.
