Buzz Rickson Black Tropical Jacket Men's William Gibson Collection US Vietnam War Jungle Fatigue Jacket BR14975
This men's casual black lightweight cotton jacket is made in Japan and designed by Buzz Rickson, a respected military clothing brand under Toyo Enterprise. It is part of Buzz Rickson's William Gibson collection, which focuses on black-themed items. This jacket draws inspiration from the iconic U.S. Army 1964 1st-Model Tropical Jacket (COAT, MAN'S, COMBAT, TROPICAL), also known as the 1st Pattern Jungle Fatigue Jacket from the Vietnam War era. While it faithfully replicates many of the original details, this version has been updated from the original olive color to black for a more casual and fashionable look, making it perfect for everyday wear. Buzz Rickson has expertly recreated the jacket's vintage aesthetics, ensuring historical accuracy and nostalgic appeal, while using high-quality black colored materials for a timeless design with modern durability. The fabric is unlined and single-layer, made from lightweight poplin material consisting of 70% cotton and 30% nylon for both durability and comfort. It is a thin, high-density weave that offers excellent durability. Designed for wear in hot, humid tropical rainforests, the fabric is lightweight and quick-drying, combining toughness with a flexible feel for comfortable wear. It features a full-button closure with 6 buttons on the front, including a hidden 5-button placket. It has an integrated internal flap for protection, and four exterior pockets - two expandable chest pockets with drain holes and pencil slots, and two large cargo pockets. The jacket includes a notched collar, adjustable sleeve cuffs, shoulder epaulets, and waist adjustment tabs. This product is offered in Japanese (Asian) sizes and features a modern fit. For reference, a tagged Japan size M is better suited for those who typically wear a US/EU size S or 36. Buzz Rickson has updated the fit of this jacket to a more contemporary cut, giving it a stylish, casual look compared to the classic fit. Designed as a versatile and practical lightweight outerwear piece, it is ideal for both spring and fall.
