Overvest (kataginu)
The Overvest (kataginu) by Unknown Artist is a rectangular piece of clothing with a light gray background and a subtle grid pattern. A white band runs across the top. There are two black sections that run from the top down to the bottom. The top portion of the vest has a semi-transparent black overlay with long, thin triangular sections that fan out from the black sections. Two circular designs with starburst patterns are visible on either side.
