The highly dense fabric used in military jackets develops a very attractive character through friction.
Among these, jungle cloth shows prominent changes over time, and this aging effect is comparable to that of leather.
Furthermore, the thick fabric, brushed on the reverse side, offers excellent wind resistance, making it an ideal material for military garments.
This jacket allows you to fully enjoy the changing texture of jungle cloth, much like the way the leather flight jacket A-2 of the Army Air Forces changes its appearance over time.

<AVIATION ASSOCIATES>
From the 1920s to the 1940s, various types of flight clothing incorporating military specifications were also sold commercially. Old photo materials from during the war sometimes show pilots wearing these commercially available jackets, indicating that they actually flew. While wearing jackets other than those officially issued was, of course, outside regulations, it can be said that this was typical of how regulations were relaxed during wartime. The main differences between issued and commercial items were in design and material usage, with many commercial items adhering to the issued colors. Particularly in terms of design, which is the external appearance of the jacket, many were arrangements based on military-issued items, resulting in many attractive jackets with a very classical impression. Aviation Associates is a collection of legendary jackets that Buzz Rickson's, then a military contractor, released for civilian use. We invite you to experience these masterful pieces, which are a condensation of the Buzz Rickson's spirit.

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 the days of its predecessor, Koushou Shokai, when it supplied souvenir jackets (such as Sukajan) to US military bases. In 1993, it released its first flight jacket. Since then, the military wear it has reproduced has been perfect, just like Sun Surf's Hawaiian shirts and Sugar Cane's denim wear.
