Alpha Industries MA-1 TT Flying Tigers Jacket - Black
The MA-1 jacket is crafted from durable, damage-resistant materials, providing effective protection against cold, wind, and moisture. Its reversible design, inspired by its original application for USAF pilots, enables it to be worn in the traditional style or with the orange side visible, enhancing visibility in challenging conditions. With its thoughtfully designed construction and numerous practical pockets, the jacket is perfect for both everyday use and outdoor activities.
Durable materials and reversible design
The outer layer is made of sturdy and abrasion-resistant nylon, which protects against wind and moisture.
The MA1 can be worn on either the right or left side. The inside has a distinctive orange color, referring to the original purpose of MA-1 jackets, which were used by USAF pilots. In the event of an emergency landing or being shot down, the bright color increased the chances of being quickly found by emergency services. Nowadays, this solution can be useful when walking on unlit roads.
Thermal strip and elastic cuffs
The MA-1 Heritage jacket fastening is a one-way zipper with a synthetic leather puller, making it easy to use when wearing gloves. An internal thermal strip protects the zipper, providing additional protection from the cold. Elastic ribbing at the collar, cuffs, and waist secure the jacket against the cold and improve the fit.
5 practical pockets
The jacket has five roomy pockets:
- two front ones closed with flaps and snaps,
- two inside pockets closed with snaps,
- one on the left sleeve, closed with a zipper.
The Remove Before Flight tag was placed on the sleeve next to the pocket, adding to the military style. The jacket features Flying Tigers unit markings.

The jacket is great. Made from high quality material, ideal for everyday outfits. Classic cut at its best, and the extra patches give it a unique style and elegance. I think everyone should have one in their wardrobe. The jacket is lightweight, so it's best for spring and summer. I recommend it.

I really like the style of this jacket – it's a combination of a classic bomber jacket with modern touches. The jacket isn't too warm, so it's perfect for transitional periods like spring or autumn, which is exactly what I needed.
