MA-1 Nylon Jacket
- By Capt71 from Redwood City CA USA on Tuesday, January 24, 2012
- Pros: Faithful to original specs and well made.
- Cons: Alpha sizing--order one size larger than you take.
- Review:
I purchased the gunmetal version of this jacket. I found the overall workmanship and materials to be excellent. I was happy to see that Alpha made it with the orange liner. It is warm, but I don't think it would stand up to sub-zero temperatures. I had heard that the Alpha jackets run somewhat small in size, so I ordered one size larger than I normally take and it fits perfectly (I had previously purchased an Alpha CWU-45/P and its sizing was similar).
I recommend this product. - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 12 Other people found this review helpful.

GREAT QUALITY!!!
- By Dean from Los Angeles CA USA on Tuesday, November 25, 2014
- Pros: Warm, high quality and durable
- Cons: I don't have any cons....
- Review: MyPilotStore had the best price. I wanted a jacket from this manufacture, not a cheap knock-off. These jackets are genuine. MyPilotStore had it on my door step with in three days! Their web site was extremely help in choosing the correct size. My first jacket was purchased at a PX in a VA hospital. I was not aware that I should purchase a jacket one size larger than I normally wear. I will purchase from MyPilotStore again!!!

I would buy this pjacket again
- By Peter from Minneapolis MN USA on Monday, December 12, 2016
- Pros: Good construction, warm, comfortable
- Cons:
- Review: I was a little unsure about buying a flight jacket without trying it on. I've had one for over 20 years; it's been great but it was starting to fall apart and I couldn't remember what size I'd originally bought. (Collar tag is missing.) Anyway, the reviews for this were fairly good, so I thought I'd take a chance with a Large. It arrived in just a few days, and fits perfectly. It seems well constructed and keeps me warm. I like to wear a hoodie with it, too, and there's plenty of room for that. Nice sturdy inside pockets as well as outside pockets.

Really great jacket!
- By Curtis from Sterling Heights MI USA on Wednesday, April 26, 2017
- Pros: Style, fit, comfort level.
- Cons: Has to be dry cleaned, but that is being picky.
- Review: This jacket is really great. I bought a similar jacket from someone else and it was not worth the money I spent for it. The jacket proved to be really warm and very comfortable and the fit is spot on.

Hits the nail on the head...
- By Bill O'Hara from West Winfield NY USA on Tuesday, January 05, 2016
- Pros: Good product, no complaints
- Cons: I had to apply bee's wax to the zipper to have it slide more easily
- Review: This jacket fits well, is warm, and is practical. I bought a size larger than I usually wear in order to comfortably wear a thick sweater underneath for colder weather...is roomy enough to do so. I receive a lot of compliments on it; not a lot of people wear this style of jacket here...
