Buzz Rickson's William Gibson Tanker Jacket from Buzz Rickson's Japan, the foremost maker of nylon and cloth flying jackets, comes this 'William Gibson Collection' Tanker jacket.

Spec. No. 26A, the Tanker Jacket - so-named because it was originally intended for the armored forces - was destined to become one of the most popular articles of clothing used by GI's in World War II, often seen being worn by senior Generals as well as infantrymen, as well as being the fisrt choice for many fighter pilots who found it more comfortable in the cramped cockpits than the flight jackets they were issued.
