Few garments in pop culture carry the visual weight of Kaneda’s red jacket from the 1988 anime masterpiece Akira and now you can wear that legacy. The Cyberpunk 2077 Akira Capsule Jacket fuses anime nostalgia with streetwear attitude in a meticulously detailed design that turns heads whether you’re at a cosplay convention, a night out, or just making a statement on the street.
The jacket’s exterior features a rich crimson faux leather shell with high-contrast black contrast paneling across the shoulders, chest, and cuffs. A silver-tone front zipper runs the full length, flanked by dual black racing stripes a nod to the futuristic biker aesthetic of Neo-Tokyo. The interior lining is soft and comfortable, making this a jacket you’ll actually want to wear, not just display.
Up front, the embroidered “Crystal Jock” lettering in bold black font sits prominently on the chest a direct reference to Kaneda’s capsule gang from the original manga. The left sleeve sports an authentic Japanese Akira patch alongside the gang’s iconic capsule emblem buttons, rendered in high-relief black rubber. A yellow “1” badge graces the collar every detail faithfully reproduced.
Flip it around and the “Good for Health Bad for Education” capsule graphic commands the entire back panel in striking white and black text, with the red-and-blue pill capsule illustrated in full color at the center. It’s provocative, it’s pop-art, and it’s unmistakably Akira.
The jacket features a removable cyberpunk-style hood with metallic red-sequin detailing and rivet accents wear it for extra drama or remove it for a cleaner silhouette. Ribbed black knit cuffs and hem provide a classic bomber fit, while the structured shoulder pads add an unmistakable sci-fi edge.
