I’m a huge fan of Miltec flyers—this is already my third one. The jacket is great, it fits well (at a height of 1.76 m I chose size L) and looks excellent, a classic that will always be in style and will always make an impression. Not only for the training ground, but also for the street; importantly, the bomber jacket is very well made and highlights a masculine silhouette perfectly.
Mil-Tec MA-1 US Flight Jacket - Black
Functional reversible jacket in Black, drawing inspiration from the classic MA-1 Flyers pilot jacket style. The exterior is crafted from durable polyester with a PU coating, offering protection against both moisture and wind. The fabric is designed for enhanced resistance to abrasion and damage. Good insulation in cooler temperatures is provided by the synthetic polyester fiber filling.
Reversible design
The MA-1 model is made to be reversible. The interior showcases an intense orange hue, alluding to its initial use in the US Air Force. During emergency landings or ejections, the vibrant color enhanced visibility for rescue teams. Nowadays, this feature is advantageous for those walking in low-visibility areas at night—as when reversed, the jacket functions as a high-visibility element.
5 spacious pockets
The design features five practical pockets:
- two inside pockets,
- two outside with snap closures,
- and one zippered pocket on the left sleeve with pen slots.
The outside pockets offer ample space to keep your hands comfortably warm. The sleeve pocket is perfect for storing small items that need to be accessed quickly.
Main closure, thermal flap
The primary closure features a durable plastic zipper accompanied by an eco-leather puller for smooth operation even with gloves. Internally, the zipper is shielded by a thermal flap that aids in preventing heat loss.
Stand-up collar and elastic cuffs
Elastic stand-up collar and fitted cuffs on the sleeves and the lower hem prevent cold air infiltration, maintaining warmth within.

I’m certainly glad I found Military EU. They offer Mil-Tec clothing at great prices and provide excellent swift delivery. The whole ordering process is faultless. I have bought two Miltec MA1 jackets plus an N-2B and found these items to be of excellent quality. I’m a total Military EU convert now. The MA-1 jackets are well made and fit exactly as they should. They have that comfortable fit which is absolutely timeless. I bought both the black and the olive jackets and they look great. Tough, durable, and timeless in style, they really are good. The prices are far cheaper than some UK-based places, and they arrive on time. Thank you, Military EU. I look forward to my next purchase.

Size: 3XL
I bought two, one black and one green, and they arrived in Dnipro in about a week. The quality is excellent, and they were packed well. For my height of 178 cm and a 3XL belly, the fit is perfect. I tried it on over a T-shirt, and there is enough room for a hoodie underneath. Many thanks to the seller, I recommend buying it.

Size: XL
Hello Military team, Thanks for the quality at this price, there’s no point looking anywhere else. I bought XL in black and olive, both 👍 I RECOMMEND the store. I will definitely keep shopping.

The product is characterized by high quality and a well-fitted size. I am 185 cm tall and weigh 155 kg. The 3XL size fits properly in both the chest and the waist. If the jacket were 5 cm longer, it would be perfect, but as it is, it's just ideal.

Jacket is great, im 180cm and 74 kg, and the L has plenty of room without been to big, its just right, im very happy with it, took a bit of time to get here (Ireland) but worth it, thanks military.eu, I am and will be buying more stuff from you, 5 stars all round.

After a week of use, I can say that this is a well-made 'fleece'. It also works well at low temperatures and keeps you warm. I am 186 cm tall and weigh 86 kg, chest circumference 110 cm. I was considering size XL and L – I chose L. It could be a bit longer, but that’s just how this style is. If someone prefers longer, they should order XL. On me it fits great and looks very good. Order processing was super fast – I ordered on March 1 before 15:00, and on March 2 around 11:00 I already had the package in the parcel locker. I recommend it – everything matches the description.
-
The jacket is well made, but the size chart on the store's website is very confusing. I ordered size L (according to the manufacturer, for a 140 cm chest), but with my 133 cm chest, I couldn't fasten it. If you choose the wrong size, you have to pay for the return and to reorder, which is a significant downside.

I've been wearing it for a long time, mainly on a daily basis, and it works very well. It's comfortable, lightweight, and at the same time provides pleasant warmth on cooler days. The cut is simple and timeless, matching both jeans and a sportier style. The material looks solid and doesn't seem cheap, even after intensive use. The pockets are practical and easy to access. The downside might be weaker protection against strong wind, but as a city jacket, it serves its purpose very well.

I've wanted a black bomber for a long time and finally bought one. At first, it seems too big, but that's just the cut's features. Very comfortable whether you're on foot or behind the wheel. Wore it during a blizzard and at -8°C with just a thin turtleneck underneath and didn't get cold at all. It protects not just from rain but from wind too.
-
This jacket gives a very "aviation" feeling: simple, recognizable silhouette, nothing unnecessary, but it looks distinctive. The black color is universal, easily pairs with either jeans or more tactical clothing. The material feels pleasant to the touch and looks sturdy, the jacket holds its shape well and doesn’t look like a thin "windbreaker." In cool weather, it really helps: it’s more wind-resistant than it seems in the photo, and the fit is comfortable, not restricting movement. The pockets are convenient, everything is at hand, and overall it feels like something you can confidently wear for more than one season.

Bought as a gift for my dad, who had been wearing the original "flekki" for many years. He was very satisfied, so I can confidently recommend it! The size matches the chart data.
-
Great and solidly made website. I used it when I was still in Ukraine. Express shipping! The quality, as always, is at the highest level! The prices are attractive! I will definitely use it in the future!
-
Very very good jacket warm and stylish. A little puffy but im very happy with it. Dual sided is also a cool little option to have. I ordered the green on orange.
-
The bomber is very poor quality – the material is bad, the seams are done carelessly, and the joints are poorly matched. The jacket is reversible, but the labels are sewn in permanently, so they can't be removed. The only plus is the stylish look and that it’s warm. I gave 3 stars only for the store’s quick service.
