Buzz Rickson MA-1 William Gibson
I believe its the only MA-1 bomber jacket that Buzz Rickson makes that comes in black. It's also a bit slimmer and longer than other MA-1 repros.

Buzz Rickson MA-1 William Gibson
The zipper pull isnt that much of a concern. I do worry about that hole in the waistband though.

Buzz Rickson MA-1 William Gibson
To be fair, both me and the seller are based in the Philippines so I assume the fact that nobody would be crazy enough to wear something like this here factors into the price. I'm interested in it as 1) I do travel out of the country at least once a year to Japan or Korea during Spring or Autumn 2) Always wanted a bomber jacket and 3) I'm a Wlliam Gibson fan.

Real McCoy's Winter Jacket - how warm is it?
Yup. Worst case is I can pass off the stains as "patina" if I can't get rid of them.

Real McCoy's Winter Jacket - how warm is it?
It has a Melton wool lining, so it should offer some insulation, though I’m not sure how thick it is. Either way, I’ve decided to go for it after checking out the prices online.
