BUZZ RICKSON'S B-15A (MOD.) "REED PRODUCTS, INC." Flight Jacket [BR15131]

This is a modified type of B-15A with a collar boa and improved to a clean ribbed collar.
The neck area is neat, so it doesn't get in the way when layering a hooded hoodie or wrapping a scarf.
The body is B-15, so it is perfect for a vintage style style made of cotton material.

From the catalog After World War II, the arrival of jet aircraft forced a major overhaul of aviation maintenance, and flight jackets were no exception.
The most important change in aviation equipment was the introduction of hard helmets to protect pilots' heads from aircraft vibrations, but the increase in headgear size had the effect of interfering with the collars of flight jackets.
To solve this problem, the B-15 series produced a “Modified” (MOD.) model with a modified collar. This modification involved removing the shearling collar from the body and reattaching the wool rib knit. To do this, it was impossible to attach the collar unless the body was turned inside out, so the waist ribs on the back were first removed. As a result, there are traces of re-stitching on the collar and hem.
This modification was often seen on B-15 series A, B, C, and D models, and was retrofitted with a white label to prove that it had been officially modified.
A common misconception is that each type was developed and modified in turn, but this is not the case. This was done all at once in accordance with the technical order instructions.
The left sleeve of the B-15A originally has an AAF (Army Air Force) insignia, but the insignia of the USAF (U.S. Air Force) was added to the insignia of the AAF (U.S. Insignia has been transcribed.
