Buzz Ricksons

Buzz Rickson's x William Gibson - Combat Tropical - Jungle Jacket - Black

£295.00 £365.00

Inspired by the classic jungle fatigues designed for subtropical environments, this updated version blends military heritage with modern innovation. Originally crafted from cotton poplin, this design utilizes lightweight yet durable cotton-nylon fabric, offering improved strength and versatility.

As part of the exclusive William Gibson Collection, these fatigues honor the visionary novelist behind Pattern Recognition. In the novel, the iconic "Buzz Rickson's Black MA-1" features prominently, becoming a symbol of the intersection between fiction and reality.

Key details include exposed pocket flap buttons reminiscent of the original first-model fatigues. The blacked-out design, a signature of the William Gibson Collection, echoes the same approach used in the iconic Black MA-1 jacket. While military MA-1 jackets were traditionally sage green, this collection's all-black aesthetic transforms a historical design into a modern classic.

Subtle variations in the black dyeing process highlight the intricate construction, revealing the unique textures of each material. This attention to detail ensures the fatigues remain true to their military roots while delivering a contemporary, street-ready style.
