Buzz Rickson’s Lot BR42340 / U.S. Marine Corps Herringbone Pants

During World War II, the Type G-3A suit was adopted to reduce the G-forces exerted on pilots. The intense G-forces affect blood flow, causing blood to flow from the brain to the lower body, and if blood is lacking in the brain, the field of vision becomes pitch black, and eventually the pilot loses consciousness, resulting in a "G-lock" state. A suit was developed that tightly tightens the body with cords to prevent blood from flowing to the tips of the limbs. This bag was included to store the suit. The seams are carefully piped with time and effort, and the zipper uses a war-type TALON zipper. Although the capacity is compact, the transfer-type Air Force mark and the stencils that fill every corner show the pride of the Army Air Corps. 24cm x 21cm x 10cm Made in Japan
