I just got this buzz rickson horsehide A-2 but have never seen one like it before.
Is this a rough wear, label reads contract 42-1401P. and it has a crown zip and a collar stay.
I normally look on ratuken to find about stuff like this but I could not find anything,there are tan jackets there but not this one, does anyone know old this is.
Where original jackets ever tan or is this a Japanese fantasy colour.
This fits me perfectly, and I would like to keep as finally after 15 years I have a jacket that is just right fit wise, but I know the colour is never going to be right for me, once you get that doubt in your mine nothing will ever get rid of it.
I am thinking of doing a re-dye, I know it will ruin the value but if it's done right I would be okay with it.
I live in Perth, Australia and my options to get it professionally done here are pretty non existent.
Can anyone recommend anyone in Europe or the USA who will do a decent job.
Doing it myself will be last resort as most of my efforts seem to end in disaster, I need to find out the costs involved to have someone do it and wether it would be worth it cost wise or just reluctantly have to sell it on.
