Buzz Rickson’s Coast Guard sweat parka BR69443 is back in Japan

A 23 October restock returns Buzz Rickson’s navy horizontal-knit COAST GUARD sweat parka, lot BR69443, to Toyo Enterprise’s Japanese catalogue at ¥20,900.

Toyo Enterprise’s Buzz Rickson’s store recorded a 23 October 2026 restock for lot BR69443, the navy Horizontal Knitting Sweat Parka “COAST GUARD”. It belongs to the maker’s existing sweatshirt line, not a fresh 25 October collection debut.

The Japanese list price remains ¥20,900 including consumption tax. What returns here is access to a specific hooded model and graphic, rather than a new construction claim.

The details in the cloth

The “horizontal knitting” wording is Buzz Rickson’s own description of its manufacturing approach. The supplied stockist imagery shows ribbed cuffs, a front kangaroo pocket, hood hardware and the curved COAST GUARD chest lettering. Those are the observable details; fabric blend, shrinkage and care should be checked against the current garment tag rather than guessed from the photographs.

The parka differs from the label’s earlier COAST GUARD crewneck and from various similarly named military sweatshirts. The BR69443 lot number is the useful way to avoid cross-model confusion.

A restock with size limits

The maker records the restock date, but its listing should still be checked by size and seller. Prime Skateboard’s exact navy photo gallery supplies the detailed views used here. Neither the Japanese list price nor an image of the hoodie proves it will ship to every country.
