A jujutsu uwagi being worn.

An uwagi (上衣) is a kimono-like jacket worn in Japan. It is most familiar as the top half of a martial arts uniform.

The third element, the obi, ties the uwagi closed.

In some martial arts, the set is completed with hakama, which might be worn over, or instead of the zubon.
