 Buzz Rickson's have excelled themselves, in the recreation of the famous US Army Paratrooper 'Jump' Jacket.

These elite troops where characterised by the wearing of this unique combat uniform. It's distinctive safari/hunter design, with angles double studded pockets became as much a part of the WWII U.S. Paratroopers' identity as their jump boots and parachute qualification wings.

Many will have seen the award winning productions of “Saving Private Ryan” and “Band of Brothers”, both of which have re-invigorated interest in the units that took part in the Normandy battles - not least the US paratroopers.

Buzz Rickson's Jump Jacket is without doubt the finest reproduction of this design ever to be offered. From the quality of the materials, to the cut and fit, these fine garments are virtually indistinguishable from an original. To further capture the essence of owning a vintage original, these have been given a post production wash, making this a D-Day deadringer!

Take note of these authentic features:

  • Exact copy of contractor label printed on off-white cotton.

  • Custom manufacturing of the correct spec cotton twill, dyed to the exact shade of light Olive Drab, then washed for a veteran’s combat-worn look.

  • Four slant-flap expandable bellows pockets, designed to hold plenty of personal items, rations, ammo and grenades; everything a paratrooper would need upon hitting the ground.

  • Genuine New-Old-Stock 1942 Conmar Conmatic frontal zipper in nickel plate on 100% cotton HBT tape.

  • Bi-swing side-and-center-pleated action back for superb range of movement.
