Field Notes

Coming a long way from its inception as the M-422, the G-1 from Buzz Rickson's has been given the William Gibson treatment. Constructed from vegetable tanned, aniline dyed goatskin, the jacket boats a distinctive lustre and texture. The collar is made from genuine shearling sheep mouton for ultimate warmth and can be popped to reveal the 'USN' initialisation on the back. This flight jacket is revered for its original details like the bi-swing action back, rayon lining, and U.S. Department of Defence spec buttons.
