■A U.S. Army Classic, Revived Through Japanese Craftsmanship.
The U.S. ARMY Denim Working Jacket from BUZZ RICKSON'S recreates 1940s U.S. Army workwear, bringing the rugged appeal of American military wear into the modern day through meticulous Japanese craftsmanship.
Originally designed as a pullover, the jacket was updated in 1940 with a button-front design that was easier to put on and take off. Details such as the flapped hip pockets faithfully recreate the original design.
For those drawn to vintage clothing but mindful of the fit and condition of secondhand pieces, this jacket offers the rugged character of vintage military wear in a brand-new garment. Throw it over chinos or fatigue pants for a spring or autumn weekend spent browsing vintage stores and independent boutiques. With wear, the denim develops greater depth and character, gradually becoming a vintage piece uniquely your own.

BUZZ RICKSONS
Established in 1993, BUZZ RICKSONS is dedicated to the history and heritage of flight jackets.

Each piece embodies the craftsmanship and enduring appeal of vintage flight jackets.
Lightweight Denim That Softens with Wear
Made from 100% cotton blue denim, this lightweight fabric layers easily over T-shirts and shirts, making it a practical choice for the changing seasons of spring and autumn.
A single-wash treatment gives the denim a natural character from the outset. Initially crisp and firm to the touch, the fabric gradually softens with wear and becomes more comfortable as it adapts to the body.
Faithfully Reproduced Period Details
A clean, angular collar brings out the rugged character of traditional workwear.
Metal front buttons stamped with “U.S. ARMY” capture the spirit of the originals—a thoughtful detail for those who appreciate military heritage.
Before the introduction of a button-front design in 1940, this work shirt was a pullover. As it was worn tucked into trousers, chest pockets were the standard.
It later evolved into a coat-style design with a full front opening, making it easier to put on and take off. The pockets were also moved to the waist and redesigned with flaps, a detail that speaks to the practical needs of the time.
Durable flat-felled seams reinforce areas subject to frequent movement, including the shoulders and sides. White stitching stands out against deep indigo, highlighting the character of vintage workwear.
Easy to Wear, Rich in Character.
A generous body allows room for a heavyweight sweatshirt underneath. The longer, hip-covering length reinforces its workwear roots, making it ideal for relaxed, effortless layering.
Meticulous stitching and authentic period details give this relaxed-fit jacket a distinctive character that goes beyond casual wear. Simply pair it with chinos or fatigue pants for a refined American casual look that brings out the appeal of vintage military style.
