Buzz Rickson's x William Gibson Jungle Cloth A-2 Jacket Black

Description

Inspired by the garment referenced in William Gibson’s 2003 novel Pattern Recognition, the William Gibson Collection reimagines classic U.S. military wear through a modern, monochrome lens. This Jungle Cloth Jacket from Buzz Rickson's takes inspiration from the USAAF A-2 Flying Jacket and is constructed to the uncompromising standards Buzz Rickson's is known for. One of the most iconic flight jackets of all time receives a 'counterculture cool' update from Buzz Rickson's. Standard issue contract A-2 leather jackets were originally issued in leather butJapanese heavy hitters Buzz Rickson's use a fine cotton cord cloth here known as Jungle Cloth. This allows for improved mobility and reduces the weight quite dramatically making it a go to jacket. Instantly recognisable as an A-2, the centre zip uses a nickel finished mil spec talon zipper while the snap buttons used meet U.S. Government Department of Defence specs. The rib knitted cuffs and waistband are a blend of olive and brown coloured yarns and the jacket is complete with the woven Buzz Rickson's Clothing Military Tailor Shop Logo. - 100% Cotton 'Jungle Cloth' Outer - 100% Cotton Sateen Inner - 'Talon' Mil Spec zipper - Oxidised black snap button - Snap down collar - Snap closure patch pockets - Knitted wool rib cuffs and waistband - Leather pull tab on zip - Made in Japan
