Full look | Buzz Rickson's, Merz B. Schwanen

A tribute to mid-century American workwear with true WWII authenticity. The Buzz Rickson’s BR43041 Waist Overalls and matching WWII Denim Blouse recreate classic U.S. military denim with period-correct 13.6oz fabric, suspender buttons, and original stitching details — raw, rugged, and full of historical charm. Underneath, the Merz b. Schwanen 1950s Loopwheel Tee in white adds a soft, vintage touch with its lightweight cotton and tubular construction. Finished with vintage Red Wing boots, this is a head-to-toe homage to durable, honest clothing from a time when garments were built to serve — and to last.
