The jacket matches the description; it's a classic model, so there's nothing to complain about. The downside, however, is the material—it doesn't let air through, which makes it easy to get hot in it. Also, be careful with the sizing, because in my opinion, it runs a bit small.
Alpha Industries MA-1 TT Two Tone Jacket - Dark Maroon
The MA-1 jacket in a dark maroon shade is made from durable, tear-resistant materials, providing protection against cold, wind, and moisture. Double-sided design, developed for the original use by USAF pilots, allows for wearing it in a traditional style or with a reflective orange side, enhancing visibility in difficult conditions. Thanks to its thoughtful construction and numerous pockets, the jacket is suitable for both everyday use and outdoor activities.
Durable materials and double-sided design
The outer layer made of strong and tear-resistant nylon protects against wind and moisture. The MA-1 can be worn on both the right and left side. The inner part features a reflective orange color scheme. This solution is related to the original purpose of MA-1 jackets for USAF pilots, who, in case of failure or downing, had a better chance of being found by search services. Currently, this feature can be useful when moving alongside a dark road outside populated areas.
Thermal strip and elastic cuffs
The main closure of the MA-1 TT jacket is a one-way zipper with an eco-leather pull for easier handling with gloves. The internal thermal strip covers the zipper, providing additional protection against heat loss. Elastic drawstrings are used at the collar, wrists, and waist for protection against cold and a better fit to the user's physique.
5 practical pockets
The jacket is equipped with five spacious pockets:
- two front pockets with flaps and snaps,
- two internal pockets with snaps,
- one on the left sleeve with a zipper.
On the sleeve near the pocket, there is a Remove Before Flight tag, adding a military style. The left sleeve features a label with the manufacturer's logo.
