It does look good, it came from Japan, it's had a fair bit of wear over the years but not damage wear, the seller told me it's one of the nineties Buzz Candy Cane jackets
I have seen some Japanese mail order magazine during early 2000s, so I know they sell repro B15 jacket at the time , but I don’t know they made such jacket as early as 1990s. And it looks fit you very well, it is a good buy for 200 euro total price.

Your correct though, many of the early stuff was mail order magazines only, some even earlier was just Japanese market, now in the age of the internet it's all available, some of the stuff the Japanese have had for decades is great looking stuff, but only if they're willing to ship internationally haha

I found a early Buzz Rickson first pattern green liner M-A1 when the seller can figure out which courier he's going with haha, faded out and used like the Buzz B-15a, nice crown zippers on it

I don’t think that you realize this but you can post as many as ten photographs attached to each post you make. You don’t have to create a new post for every photo . It will save you a bunch of time Just passing the info on . ;).

Yes that's a silver green/grey one I've seen that one, I think that had a green liner also I'm not sure when the orange liner came in
I own a one-piece flight suit in oranger color, it was made in Mid-1960s, but I can’t recall in which year, and I think USAF introduced in this color during a time period between 1960 to 1965.
