■Buzz Rickson's BR15760 / Type TANKERS BROWN VERSION
 Model Height 175cm, Weight 62kg, wearing size L The "Tankers" jacket, developed and adopted as a uniform for tank crews, is a nickname. Its official name is "Winter Combat Jacket," and it was a winter combat uniform. To be worn inside the cramped confines of a tank, it features a simple design completely devoid of epaulets and other embellishments. The standard military color "khaki" originally meant yellowish-brown, derived from the Hindi word for "soil." Before World War I, uniforms were light-colored, but because this made soldiers easily spotted by enemy forces, the U.S. Army, which participated in World War I, changed the color of their uniforms to olive to camouflage themselves in the grassy battlefields of Europe. This color later came to be called khaki. While khaki is generally the common color for Tankers jackets, this is a very rare brown version that actually existed at the time. The reason for its brown color is unknown today, but it is still an "earth tone." Weight: 1300g  Buzz Rickson's is a military brand from Toyo Enterprise, which also owns vintage American casual brands like Sugar Cane and Sun Surf. The company has a long history with military items; its predecessor, Kosho Co., supplied souvenir jackets (such as Sukajan) to U.S. military bases. In 1993, they released their first flight jacket. Since then, each military wear item they reproduce, much like Sun Surf's Hawaiian shirts and Sugar Cane's denim wear, is perfectly crafted.
