The Haori (羽 織, Haori) is a traditional Japanese jacket that falls to the hip or thighs, similar to a kimono, and is worn on a kosode.

Unlike yukata, haori is not closed, but instead is used open or held closed by a rope connecting the two flaps. During the Sengoku period, the sleeved haori used to be worn on the armor of the samurai, such as the tabard in Europe. During the Edo period, Japan's economic growth enabled the middle class to begin to acquire haori, along with the emergence of laws against ostentatious display for all but the warrior caste; this in turn gave rise to discreet haori designs with sumptuously ornate fabric.
