[BUZZ RICKSON'S William Gibson Collection "BR29143" Black Chambray L/S Work Shirt]
This is a black version of the blue chambray shirt, a best-seller at Buzz Rickson's for over 20 years.
The chambray fabric has selvedge edges and is woven on an old-fashioned loom, with careful attention paid to the stitch color and thread.
The uneven tension gives it a distinctive texture that improves with each wear.
This chambray shirt is based on a shirt introduced in the 1950s.
While the style and specifications have changed over the years, the shirts introduced in the 1950s from the beginning have retained the good old-fashioned specifications of gussets on both sides of the hem, a stand-up collar with a placket, and more.
Chambray fabric from this era has a low tension, and is characterized by shrinkage with repeated washing, resulting in a unique texture.
The distinctive texture of chambray makes it comfortable to wear, making it a piece that can be worn year-round.
William Gibson Collection
This is the first black MA-1 produced by Buzz Rickson's to mark the brand's 10th anniversary.
In the novel "Pattern Recognition" by world-renowned novelist William Gibson, the protagonist wears a "Buzz Rickson's Black MA-1" inscribed on his jacket.
The actual Buzz Rickson's Black MA-1 was born from the novel.
The MA-1, officially adopted by the U.S. Air Force in the 1950s, is originally sage green, but an authentic black MA-1 made with military-grade parts and materials based on military specifications has never existed.
As a result, it was well-received and a hot topic among authentic-looking customers.
Even if each material is specified as black, each dyes differently. When these materials are combined into a single jacket, subtle color differences become apparent, highlighting the number of different materials used in a flight jacket.
