Buzz Rickson

[jeash90]

Anyone have/had the buzz rickson m-65? I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on it compared to the RMC one given the price difference. Thanks!

I have the Buzz Rickson one and I love it. Haven't handled the RMC one but I have seen the price difference and given the quality (as I see it) of the BR one I wouldn't regard it as justified.

@Mtvare, thanks for the response and good to hear! I know the measurements are available and all, but would you say it fits TTS, albeit kind of baggy so you could wear a sweater underneath, or would you recommend sizing up?

I'm never quite sure what true to size means to be honest. My M65 is a medium.  I have two other Buzz Rickson items - a crew neck sweatshirt in XL, and the short-sleeve chambray shirt in 16-16 1/2, which I believe is supposed to be medium. They're all the right size for me, which is not baggy but not tight either. I can comfortably wear the XL sweat under the medium M65.

Does anybody here own the black William Gibson chinos? Did you experience more than an 1” in shrinkage in the waist and inseam as advertised?? Thanks!

I do. It didn't seem like there was any significant shrinkage (line dry). What I will say is that with pants this high waisted you don't want to go for a tight fit in the waist.

I also didn't notice any shrinkage, but the waist did stretch a bit - they sat at my navel when new but have sagged down a couple of inches since then.

I've got two pairs now: a 34 and a 36. rn the 36 fits perfectly. Negligible shrinkage. I got them hemmed and sort of regret it as I like the factory hem. Should I get another pair of 36's?

Does anyone have experience with their tanker slash pocket jackets? I'm keen to pick one up, but looking at sizing I'm not sure if I want to go XL or XXL. They seem to run true to size-ish?

I have the version with the shovel shaped pockets and it’s a generous fit, plus it has the pleats in the back that allow for a lot of mobility. I took a 38 and could have gone for a 36 honestly. Could layer a bulky sweat under it easily

Good to know, thanks!

Looking to pickup a M-65 Parka (without hood). I've got a Large in the Combat Tropical jacket. Measurements is saying I'm between a Medium and Large. I'm not a fan of sizing down on this jacket to get it to fit conventionally, looks wrong to my eyes. So I was going to go with a Large, unless someone has experience matching this jacket to your other Buzz jackets? Thanks!
