Buying this jacket was somewhat of a necessity, because this style is perfect for me, but after receiving the package I was very disappointed. I'll start with the advantages (although there are few): - Hood: both the design and the pleasant lining are a big plus and definitely better than in previous versions; Disadvantages: 1. General problems: - The quality of workmanship is very poor: threads stick out from many places, the buttons practically fall off just by looking at them, and the loops for buttons are made from poor string and come apart even without use; - The sizing is highly exaggerated. At 190 cm tall, a 3XL barely fits me; - The main zipper (metal, large teeth) is very stiff despite repeated lubricating and is at risk of breaking; - There are also "minor issues" like a button sewn to the inner pocket button as a kind of reinforcement, but stitched with only one seam and in the middle of the pocket, which makes it hard to use and easy to rip the attaching thread. There are a lot of other shortcomings, but I don't want to dwell on them. I give two stars for sentimental value and a good jacket idea, because the design is great, but unfortunately it doesn't look like "German quality".
Warm and cozy jacket with the popular "flyers" design. Constructed from a mix of sturdy synthetic materials, secured with a robust zipper and buttoned flap.
The exterior is made of nylon, and polyester insulation offers protection against the cold. Elastic cuffs sewn into the sleeves and at hip level ensure thermal comfort by trapping warm air within the jacket. An extendable hood, lined with faux fur, is included and can be transformed into a collar using the zipper provided.
The jacket features five practical pockets:
- two side pockets with snap closures,
- two interior pockets,
- and one pocket on the left shoulder secured with a zipper.
The design of the side pockets allows access from both the outside and inside of the jacket.

Good morning. The sizes from the chart do not match the actual product. I am 193 cm tall and weigh 90 kg, and the XL size barely reaches my navel, with the sleeves ending just past my elbows. It looks like the manager has never seen the product they are selling.

If you wear M or L or are tall, it’s better to choose size XL or larger. L fits people up to 180 cm and 78 kg. The jacket is well made, but the faux fur on the hood looks cheap and significantly spoils its appearance.

Very good quality, the product matches the photo, delivery took five days. The jacket is perfect for winter, the hood protects the head effectively. I definitely recommend it!

The jacket size is smaller than standard – it’s good to check reviews before buying. I chose one size larger than usual, I'm 183 cm tall and have a 96 cm chest, and XL is very fitted. The jacket is warm and sturdy. Customer service is of a high standard. I am very happy with the purchase and do not intend to return it. I recommend it! Ignacy

The jacket measurements are significantly different from those described on the website. The sleeve is only longer if measured from the hood, not from the shoulder as shown in the illustration – size XXL measured from the shoulder is barely 54 cm. The jacket is only 64 cm flat in the chest, and less than 50 cm at the waist. The jacket is definitely shorter than the MA-1 model. The quality is actually quite good. I suggest Militaria.pl improve the descriptions and list it as a women’s jacket. The XXL size will fit a woman about 176 cm tall. There is a lack of military clothing for women, so such an option would be a hit.

The sizing of this jacket is very underestimated. We bought a size L for my husband, which he usually wears, but it turned out to be too small and had short sleeves. Only after several exchanges did size 3XL fit properly. The return and exchange process went smoothly and very quickly. We recommend choosing a size even two or three times larger than usual. I did not expect that 3XL would be the best for my husband.

The jacket has 3 pockets instead of 5 as stated in the description. There are no inner pockets, but instead there are strange, impractical openings in the outer pockets leading to the inside of the jacket. In theory, you can reach the pockets of your sweatshirt, but the openings cannot be closed, which makes it cold. The jacket will be returned.

The jacket looks great and is comfortable to wear. I highly recommend it to those who are hesitating. The workmanship is of a high standard and provides a lot of warmth. It's a sturdy jacket, you can buy it with confidence. The shipment arrived very quickly.
