A masterwork! Size M fits just right for 178 cm and 84 kg, but L would also be good, maybe even more comfortable—in fact, I had a big dilemma about which to pick, and M stayed for now. The L is only a bit bigger, actually fits better, but I kept M so that it's just right, even with a sweater. So, all this talk about taking a smaller size is not true, and I'm not a big guy. I have an average build. Material and workmanship are excellent—truly, probably the best company when it comes to this model. I was also convinced by the better sleeve cuffs, two-zone, with one half near the hand being denser and more snug. This demonstrates higher manufacturing care and that's indeed the case: the outer material is solid yet pleasant to the touch—top quality—and not too expensive. For me, probably the best jacket I’ve had so far. Comfortable and elegant. What also surprised me is what others wrote: it's warm, and it really is! Even though it doesn’t fasten up to the neck, the jacket alone keeps me warm, even at -8 degrees, when I only wore an undershirt and a thin jumper under my neck. Honestly, I was really surprised! Excellent protection. Solid material, lightweight, extremely comfortable and warm. Those opinions about the zip not working smoothly or needing waxing are completely untrue—absolute nonsense! The zip works smoothly, probably one of the easiest and smoothest I’ve had on jackets. No resistance when catching, fastening, or unfastening—it works perfectly. As for it coming undone on its own, which some have written about, it’s due to a so-called special military feature, with a sort of arch above the zip, which releases the lock and opens the zip when pressed from above—an auto-lock zipper. The jacket is brilliant. I'm attaching some photos to show the workmanship.

The black Brandit MA1 jacket is a fashionable and functional choice, inspired by flight jackets. It provides warmth, is comfortable, and made from high-quality materials; it works perfectly on colder days, especially when paired with a fleece. Its traditional cut adds style and goes well with various outfits. I wholeheartedly recommend this timeless, classic bomber model.

This jacket works great both for everyday city use and for light trips out of town. It is very warm and comfortable to wear, not restricting movement even on colder days. The material is durable – after prolonged use there are no signs of wear, it does not stretch or pill, and its appearance remains as new. The distinctive orange lining makes it easy to quickly find the jacket in your bag and also adds style. The cut of the jacket is well-fitted yet non-restrictive, and the careful finishing and sturdy zips speak to the high quality of the product. It is the perfect choice for those who value functionality, comfort, and modern design.

An excellent jacket, very comfortable and warm, carefully made, the size matches the table, the colour is attractive, the zip is sturdy and works flawlessly. The jacket is definitely worth its price and recommendation. I highly recommend it.

I am 173 cm tall and weigh 70 kg, and the size M turned out to be too big. I think it would be suitable for a person who is 176-178 cm tall and weighs 74-75 kg. The jacket is sturdy and really waterproof, so it’s definitely worth buying.

The Brandit MA1 jacket in Dark Navy is a stylish choice reminiscent of traditional flight jackets. It provides warmth, comfort, and is made from solid materials, making it perfect for cold days. The deep navy colour adds a touch of elegance, while its universal cut goes well with various styles. I highly recommend it!

Good day, I chose this jacket for my dad – it’s excellent, fits well, and for a height of 172 cm and 70 kg, size M fits perfectly. The quality is very high, the material is soft and very comfortable. I recommend the purchase! The colour and photos accurately reflect reality.

Everything is fine! The size matches the description and the given measurements. The jacket is solid, the quality-to-price ratio is very good. In reality, it looks even better than in the photos. It has an interesting colour. It's a real FLEK, just like in the old days :) I definitely recommend it!

Great, warm jacket, I bought it with the thought of returning to my youth days :):):). The description of the jacket on Militaria.pl matches reality perfectly. Size L fits perfectly for 185 cm height and 90 kg weight. The jacket is comfortable, just lightly coat it with wax and the zipper works flawlessly. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone.
