Buzz Rickson's M-1943 Jacket Olive
Buzz Rickson's
Japanese brand Buzz Rickson's are widely considered one of the few high-end reproduction brands of military garments out there.
The M-1943 Field Jacket is the successor of the M-1941 and was developed to integrate the various field uniforms the US Army had adopted until then. The silhouette was always a little loose fitting or over-sized as it was originally designed to cope with all possible situations and be worn on top of various uniform.
Buzz have faithfully reproduced the M-1943 Field Jacket in Japan to exacting standards. It has been cut from a heavy-duty cotton back satin, exclusive to Buzz Rickson's and modelled exactly on original examples. This is a durable and water-resistant fabric ideal for modern wear and layering while the lining uses a lightweight cotton poplin. As per original examples the M43 features a concealed button front (originally introduced to avoid any potential snagging), while the jacket features four large pockets with button closure.
A large detachable hood has been paired with a drawstring waist and stand collar with chin strap that can be used to protect the wearer from the wind.
This is an iconic piece of military design that set the standard for the later issued M-51 & M-65.
