## Description

The ma-1 or bomber jacket was first developed in the mid-1950s. The ma-1 and its predecessor, the b-15 flight jacket, were needed at that time because the emergence of the jet age created new requirements for pilot performance, safety and comfort. The jacket was warm enough when flying in cold temperatures. An ma-1 mid-weight nylon jacket is water/weather resistant. The ma-1 navy fighter pilot jacket was the first military flight jacket to cross over into civilian fashion. Our nylon flight jacket includes a knit collar, cuffs and waistband, as well as a heavy gauge brass zipper with storm flap for warmth. Our ma-1 jackets are reversible to bright orange, making them ideal for rescue missions and other times when visibility is imperative. This current version has been kept as close as possible to the classic specifications, which debuted in 1950. In 1963 the jacket received substantial revisions by changing the lining to bright orange and making the jacket reversible. The flight jacket design conveys positive images of strength, power and quality **please note that the original color 'navy' ordered by the u.s. Military is more of a teal shade to it...rather than the darker 'navy blue' traditional jackets are known for. The Alpha MA-1 Flight Jacket, often copied but never duplicated. This is the classic jacket made by Alpha Industries for the military for over 40 years; issued to both the U.S. Air Force and Navy pilots.

Review: Very well made and versatile - The jacket is exactly as described, well made and warm enough to wear in the colder months. It has pockets on both sides with buttons so nothing falls out, they're big enough for keys or gloves. Being able to wear it on both sides makes it even more versatile, the zipper is sturdy and all the details are very well made. I'm considering getting one in another color...
Review: Great Casual Jacket - Sizing of these jackets is a little confusing so hopefully this review helps. For reference I am: 170#, 5'11" with a 40" chest and wear a medium in almost all jackets and shirts. The blue jacket pictured is the Alpha Industries Core Fit in Replica Blue size small. Also included in this review for comparison, is a sage green slim fit Alpha Industries MA-1 purchased about 2 years ago in size large. I'm happy with both jackets and love wearing them. They are comfortable for all day wear and I get compliments from random strangers regularly. They look great with jeans, a simple tee and Redwing boots. SIMILARITIES: *Hardware feels sturdy and appears to be identical between the two jackets. *The cut, measurements and fit appear to be the same. *Stitching is good on both but, I almost returned the Replica Blue jacket because the right sleeve is slightly shorter than the left. After wearing it around the house for a couple hours with the tags on, it started to relax. DIFFERENCES: *The nylon used in the Replica Blue jacket feels a bit more stiff than the older Sage Green jacket. *I wore both of them outside this morning on a 40-degree day for about 20 minutes with just a tee shirt. The Replica Blue jacket was perfectly comfortable. The Sage Green jacket was acceptable but a lightweight flannel shirt as a mid-layer would have been welcome. SPECIAL NOTE: For anyone wondering how the Replica Blue differs from the older jackets sold as Navy (?), I included a side by side photo of the Replica Blue laying next to an older MA-1 that is about 10 years old. The darker jacket is Replica Blue. During the day it looks like a true navy but at night it almost looks black. It's a great color. I hope this review helps someone and I highly recommend this jacket.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High quality, Killer jacket
*by S***Y on December 4, 2014*

I live in Phoenix, AZ and have been needing a riding jacket for early morning commutes to school. I ride 26 miles to school everyday at about 80 mph in 40-50 degree weather. This jacket is perfect for the weather and I couldn't be happier. FIT: Like other reviewers have said, average sized people will need to order one size above their normal jacket/shirt size. I am 5'8" 180 pounds and wear a medium jacket and shirt. I ordered a large and it fit perfect. Keep in mind that this style of jacket is designed to sit high on the waist as the picture shows. It is best suited in the sitting position, hence the name Bomber Flight Jacket- made for pilots sitting in a cockpit. COMFORT: As mentioned on the Alpha Industries website and from personal experience, this jacket does best in 20-50 degree weather. The first day of wearing it I took it out for a ride on a 60 degree day and found it felt perfect at freeway speeds. Once I stopped to walk around, though, it was a tad bit too warm and I felt myself wanting to take it off. This jacket is more of a fall through spring warming layer depending on where you live. FINISH: This is probably the best jacket I have owned. It is made of high quality, durable materials and feels like it was made to withstand military use. Go figure. It is thicker than expected which was pleasing. The outer (darker) side is made of a thickly woven, almost rubbery feeling nylon that causes water to bead off in light rain. The inner (orange) side is a bit lighter in texture. The outer pockets are great for storing keys, a wallet or cellphone, but the inner pockets seem to be angled too far forward for storing anything of value. The arm pocket is perfect for cigarettes (if you're a smoker) or keeping a comb and registration, as I do. Lastly, the zippers are made of HEAVY brass and seem very durable. For the price, this jacket is a great deal. CONS: The inside pockets are not angled upwards enough. I put my cellphone in one and when bending over it slipped past the snap-fastener and fell out. No biggie, though, just don't store anything in them that is too small to slip past the snap-fastener. For those who are considering using the inside pockets for concealed carrying a pistol, I would recommend against it. With the angle of the pockets and their small size it makes concealing anything larger than a Glock 26 quite difficult in my opinion.
