Men's Nylon Flight Jacket

STYLE: 9628

(80)
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

  • COLOR

      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.

      Just be careful with cigar ash I burned a small hole in the nylon which melts very easily - what is the colour code ?

      I’m 6’2, 210, 32 inch waist and the large fits perfect. I came here to put that out there for anyone trying to figure out their size who might be around my size. So there you go. I like the jacket a lot. Can’t wait to wear it in the fall.

      Very happy with the jacket and the service. The exchange rate was a killer otherwise I'd have ordered the sage as well.

      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

      Published: Mon, 2/10/2025 by Giovi Collado

      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

      GREAT JACKET, SUPER WARM

      Published: Sun, 12/1/2024 by VF

      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
