Buzz Rickson

I'm not sure if it stretching out in the shoulders would necessarily mean it would in the neck as well, but even if it does it would only have a more vintage appearance. The neck holes weren't really tight, but more oblong from the tension created my the tugging at the shoulders.
Also, I'm sure you could get some length if you wanted it by tugging down. It might shrink back after you wash it but it'll probably stretch again easily if you want it to.

I wanted a well made deck jacket, but I did not want the stenciling on the front or back. I went with a Buzz Rickson N-1 Deck Jacket. I recognize that the lack of stenciling renders the jacket less authenticate (as does the black color) – so be it. I am far from an expert, but the jungle cloth exterior and alpaca lining seem stellar. I am always nervous about Japanese sizing, but I tried on a similar jacket at Self Edge and confirmed that BR’s sizing is pretty accurate (meaning I did not have to upsize).
Now I need a twenty degree drop in the weather.

Ahhh the WG edition. I was really close to getting that instead of the one I got. Very nice score! My one and only criticism if my coat is the NOS zipper. It is already fraying a little bit.

Super impressed by these A-10s. Gorgeous construction, two tone stitching, super soft wool lining, beautiful woolen cuffs, and look at the grain developing in the goat skin.

Thanks and agreed, gentlemen. They're really terrific. Have replaced my cashmere lined deerskin gloves almost entirely. Such a classic look.

Attended an outdoor sporting event this evening . . . good excuse to breakout the BR N-1 . . . most attendees were complaining about the temp . . . not me!

Fit looks good on you sir. I tried this on in American classics a few times but it looked bloody awful on me! Well done old chap!

Ok so these pics aren't the greatest….yeah they pretty much suck but you get the idea. This jacket is pretty awesome. It's warm and roomy but not too bulky.
[i do like that jacket would really like one of those very nice indeed/quote]
