■Buzz Rickson's BR15745 / Type B-10 RED RIB VERSION SUPERIOR TOGS CO., INC.
 Model Height 175cm, Weight 62kg, wearing size 38 The Type B-10 was a fabric flight jacket for moderate temperatures (+10℃ to -10℃) adopted by the US Army Air Force in July 1943 as a replacement for the leather flight jacket B-6. During World War II, the US military, facing a severe leather shortage, reevaluated its manufacturing process and productivity and developed a mass-producible cotton twill flight jacket. The lining used alpaca mohair wool pile, which had the advantage of being less bulky than sheepskin, lightweight, and highly insulating. Its appearance is very similar to the "AN" series such as AN6552 and AN-J-3A, and the G-1, which were intended for common use by both the US Army and US Navy. However, the Army Air Force did not fully adopt the "AN" series for common use by both forces, so this model was adopted as the new fabric jacket for moderate temperatures, the B-10. This B-10 was manufactured by Superior Togs Co., Inc., which was also a contractor for the B-15, B-15A, and L-2A, and features a wild look with the contrast of olive color and red rib-knit. Weight: 1400g  Buzz Rickson's is a military brand of Toyo Enterprise, which owns vintage American casual brands such as Sugar Cane and Sun Surf. The company's relationship with the military dates back to its predecessor, Kosho Co., Ltd., which supplied souvenir jackets (such as sukajan) to US military bases. In 1993, the company released its first flight jacket. Since then, the military wear it has reproduced, like Sun Surf's Hawaiian shirts and Sugar Cane's denim wear, are all perfectly crafted.
