27" Nylon flight satin MA-1 jacket with tonal Schott embroidery on left arm.
Water Resistant Shell
Updated Fit from Military MA-1s for Style and Comfort
The MA-1 bomber jacket 9628 was first introduced in the 1950's, but you could say that it's history goes back to 1935 when Dupont introduced synthetic thermoplastic polymer fiber that was used to create the first ever NYLON fabric. This revolutionary fabric was originally created for the U.S. Military. THe U.S. Military first used it for parachutes, but soon it was put to use in many ways, including Flight Jackets.
In the 1930s Military Pilots wore leather jackets, in the late 40's these aviators began wearing insulated jackets made of dense cotton, but by the 1950's U.S.A.F. Pilots were flying missions wearing the first ever issued NYLON Flight Satin MA-1's.

EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS
This jacket is truly fantastic! I have owned jackets from Alpha and Rothco, and I can confidently say this one is far superior. The design is streamlined and not bulky, offering a sleek fit. The inner pocket is also perfectly positioned to hold a wallet or cell phone. It also keeps me warm. Thank you, Schott!
HAD TO SIZE DOWN FROM THE RECOMMENDED SIZE
I normally wear an extra large on most jackets, but for this particular one with how baggy it looks and how the measurements came out, I didn't want to take a chance of having a garbage bag sitting on me.
I'm 6 ft at 220 lb with a 36in arm length, And the large fits snug, especially when you try to lift your arms up but the sleeves do not ride back and I can still put a hoodie under the jacket. I was looking at a lot of reviews for these types of bomber jackets, especially the one from alpha industries and it is incredibly baggy over there. I would recommend this one, It's also very warm for the New York city winter
DYNAMITE
LOVE IT!
like a sleeping bag!
FANTASTIC!
love it, so warm
GREAT JACKET, SUPER WARM
this jacket is great. The ONLY thing to consider…for me at least, you gotta size down. It fits how a flight jacket should, but if you want it to be a touch more form fitting. Go down. Ive never been a small in anything….until I exchanged this jacket for one. That said. I love it. Could still wear it with a hoodie and get you through the entire NY winter i believe
BLACK BOMBER JACKET MEDIUM
Very nice jacket, I don't like that you can't dry it in a dryer. Wish the pockets were a little deeper. Overall I would buy it again.
HEAVY DUTY JACKET
Selected black - awesome look with orange lining. Shell is thick nylon with typical heavy duty Schott zippers. Well-constructed jacket. Fit perfectly based on sizing guide.
MEN'S NYLON FLIGHT JACKET STYLE: 9628
Great jacket, nice fit and excellent quality. If you like the aviator style of jacket, don’t hesitate, Schott makes a beautiful one!
I used to have an Alpha Industries that I never liked the fit of. It was too short in the body length and sleeves. The Schott is perfect in all aspects.
I’m 6’, 185 lbs, 42” chest with an average build. The Fit Guide put me in a size Large, which is bang on. It gives me room to wear a hoodie underneath in colder weather—or I can just wear it with a shirt, and it still fits and looks great.
This is my 4th Schott—141; 100; 515V; and now the 9628. These guys just make great products.
MORE GREAT QUALITY FROM SCHOTT
I continue to be amazed by both the quality and value of Schott products! Both the fit and quality of this jacket are amazing, and—like every Schott item I’ve purchased in the past—it completely exceeded my expectations. Couple this with the fact that comparable jackets seem to be more expensive and for lesser quality, this item is a must-buy if you’re looking for this type of thing.
ANOTHER WINNER FROM SCHOTT
I previously purchased a leather jacket from Schott, as well as a pea coat shirt/jacket. So, I knew the quality would be worth the price. Sure enough, I received the Nylon Flight Jacket soon after placing the order. You can normally tell when you put something on whether it is well-made. That was the case here. It's warm enough, fits great, and it looks good on me.
My only complaint is that the weather is warming up, and I may not get that much use out of the jacket until autumn. Hahaha. Thanks, Schott, I love the jacket!
