Modelled after the original flying jackets issued in WWII, the brand's Aviation Associates A-2 is cut from an incredible jungle cloth which is sure to age beautifully over time. Featuring the large collar typical of the jackets, Buzz Rickson's have also included knit cuffs and waistband to ensure a snug fit. A zip closure keeps the rich orange cotton lining safe from the elements, and authentic branding has been applied inside the jacket. This model was inspired by the A-2s that were available to civilians during the 1920s-1940s.
