Description
- This herringbone twill jacket is reproduced by "Buzz Rickson's", based on vintage jackets. The U.S. Army adopted herringbone twill for combat purposes and as gas-protective clothing. The herringbone twill used olive drab, a color with high camouflage effectiveness even in solid form, and the "Jacket, Herringbone Twill," underwent a total of four minor changes between 1941 and 1943. The first pattern featured sleeves with cuffs and pleated chest pockets. After the second pattern, these were replaced with larger, vertical gusseted pockets, and the sleeve pattern changed to tube sleeves. The third pattern featured metal buttons on the collar lining for attaching/detaching the hood and added a gas flap inside the front placket to enhance the seal, improving protection against penetration by poison gas. The addition of this gas flap resulted in the label being marked "SPECIAL". All types of jackets fasten at the front with black-painted metal buttons engraved with 13 stars, and the spacing between the top and second buttons is wide. Unbuttoning the top button creates a wide lapel, giving it a distinctly military uniform appearance. - Material: Herringbone Twill (100% Cotton) - Made in Japan - Model Wearing Size: 38 (Height 163cm / Weight 62kg)
