Today, school uniforms are common in many of the Japanese public and private school systems. The Japanese word for this type of uniform is . ==History== An official from Tombow Co., a manufacturer of the sailor fuku (sailor outfits), said that the Japanese took the idea from scaled down sailor suits worn by children of royal European families. The official said "In Japan, they were probably seen as adorable Western-style children’s outfits, rather than navy gear."〔"(Schoolgirl sailor-style uniforms on decline )." ''Asahi Shimbun''. April 7, 2012. Retrieved on February 6, 2013.〕 Sailor suits were adopted in Japan for girls because the uniforms were easy to sew. The sides of the uniform had similarity to existing styles of Japanese dressmaking, and the collar had straight lines. Many home economics classes in Japan up until the 1950s gave sewing sailor outfits as assignments. Girls sewed sailor outfits for younger children in their communities.〔 In the 1980s ''sukeban'' gangs began modifying uniforms by making skirts longer and shortening the tops, and so schools began switching to blazer style uniforms to try to combat the effect. As of 2012, 50% of Japanese junior high schools and 20% of senior high schools use sailor suit uniforms.〔 The ''Asahi Shimbun'' stated in 2012 that "The sailor suit is changing from adorable and cute, a look that 'appeals to the boys,' to a uniform that 'girls like to wear for themselves.'"〔 As of that year, contemporary sailor suits have front closures with zippers or snaps and more constructed bodices. The ''Asahi Shimbun'' stated that "()he form is snug to enhance the figure—the small collar helps the head look smaller, for better balance".〔
