BUZZ RICKSON'S BR16041 WORLD WAR II DENIM BLOUSE 1st type

This denim blouse was created under wartime controls during World War II to alleviate material shortages.

The pocket flaps that were present on previous models were omitted, and the number of front buttons was reduced from five to four.

"FOR THE DURATION" written on the flasher means "for the duration of the war," indicating that the specifications were changed due to material controls until the war ended.

In the 1940s, the US government awarded the "E" pennant, meaning "Excellent," to companies that produced outstanding war materials, in recognition of their achievements.

This flasher depicts the dream scenario where Buzz Rickson's was a flight jacket contractor during the war and received the E pennant.
