I have mixed feelings. The material and build quality are excellent, but the size L fits very unusually — as if it were tailored for a very slim build. When I tried to reach forward with my arm, the jacket rode up and restricted movement, which is disappointing. I have other jackets, softshells, fleeces, and sweatshirts in size L, and only this one fits somewhat strangely — kind of elegant, but not very comfortable. However, if it fits you well, you will probably be very happy with it.
Jacket Alpha Industries MA-1 TT Two Tone - Black
The black MA-1 jacket is made from rip-resistant materials that protect against adverse weather conditions such as cold, wind, and moisture. Double-sided design, inspired by its original purpose for USAF pilots, allows for wearing in a traditional style or with a reflective side in orange color, enhancing visibility in challenging conditions. Thanks to its well-thought-out design and multiple pockets, the jacket is practical both for everyday wear and outdoor activities.
Durable materials and double-sided design
The outer layer made of tough, rip-resistant nylon, provides protection against wind and moisture. The MA-1 model can be worn on the outer or inner side. The inner, reflective orange side, recalls the jacket's original use by USAF pilots, increasing rescue chances in case of malfunction or being shot down. The contemporary use of this feature is to improve visibility during walks on unlit roads outside the city.
Thermal strip and flexible cuffs
The main fastening element of the MA-1 TT model is a one-way zipper with an eco-leather pull, making it easier to use with gloves. The inner thermal strip protects the zipper and provides additional cold protection. There are flexible drawstrings on the collar, cuffs, and waist, which guard against cold and better fit the jacket to the wearer's silhouette.
5 practical pockets
The jacket has five pockets:
- two front ones with flaps and snaps,
- two internal ones with snaps,
- and one on the left sleeve with a zipper.
The Remove Before Flight tag on the sleeve pocket adds a military character, and the manufacturer's logo patch is located on the left sleeve.

The perfect choice. The green color is actually even nicer than in the picture – a deep, dark green, not faded. The fit is tailored. Best for temperatures above 10 degrees.
