The key comes before the treasure.
This mahjong sweatshirt hoodie for women is for the student of mahjong strategy who builds her hand around a yaku before she dreams of bonus tiles. It carries the YAKU FIRST artwork, drawn in an ornate gothic style.
The artwork: the key before the treasure
YAKU arches across the top in tall ivory capitals. Below, an ornate teal gothic window frames a tile marked with a column of plum dots and a DORA label, while a brass key tagged YAKU turns in it. FIRST sits underneath in bold ivory serif capitals. The print sits on the upper chest below the drawstrings, about 3.9 inches wide and 6.3 inches tall, with no print on the back.
A warm layer for game nights
- A 100% cotton face keeps the print crisp and the outside soft.
- Made from 65% ring-spun cotton and 35% polyester.
- A three-panel hood with matching flat drawstrings.
- A front pouch pocket for cold hands or your phone.
- Choose Navy Blazer (a deep navy) or Black; the lettering stays clear on every color.
Who it's for
The player who studies hands, quotes strategy and reminds the table that a hand needs a yaku before anything else counts. Wear it to league night, a study group or an online game at home. It makes a clever gift for the friend who taught you to plan your hand.
Quick answers
What does YAKU FIRST mean?
In mahjong styles that score yaku, a hand needs at least one yaku before it can win, and bonus dora tiles only add value after that. The key tagged YAKU and the tile labeled DORA tell that story.
How large is the print?
About 3.9 inches wide and 6.3 inches tall on the upper chest, below the drawstrings. YAKU and FIRST read from across the room; the small YAKU and DORA labels show best up close.
Should I order my usual size?
Order one size up. The hoodie runs small, so the next size gives a relaxed fit for a long study session.
Care
Turn it inside out and machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors and a mild detergent. Do not bleach or dry clean. Tumble dry low or hang to dry, and never iron directly on the print.
