Slim Fit Nylon Flight Jacket

This is a terrific bomber jacket that is ideal for cold weather and rain as seasons transition. The styling is great, but it does run a little small so order one size up from normal.

I'm 6' tall aerobic/athletic build with a 40" chest and bought a medium in Navy. Fits great. The nylon has a stiffer hand and is sturdier than other nylon jkts I've seen before. It is water resistant in a light sprinkle. The Navy color is a bit darker in person than what shows on my PC monitor.

I really dig Schott's heritage and current emphasis on keeping their products mostly USA-made. This jkt, however, is made in China most likely not by union-backed Americans. For an American military inspired jkt, I'd pay a bit more for it if it were made in the USA, so why did it need to be outsourced? While the jkt may have the same quality if made in China vs the US, it's IMHO that it'd be "better" if produced domestically.

Still, highly recommended!

While I think the jacket is next to perfect, Schott NYC would see it's sales increase significantly if it offered this specific jacket in a Tall option. I'm 6'5" so I decided on the XL option and while it does fit well I would have purchased the Large-Tall option if given the choice and I would have purchased a second one at the same time. It isn't bulky which is great but it still rides up around the waist and arms. But all in all a great jacket.

sweet jacket, solid construction, runs short, order a size up

The jacket is great but it’s too short and I’m skinny and ordered a small, that was way to small, then I exchanged for a medium and it still, was way too short and felt small if you wore a sweatshirt underneath, so lesson learned, ORDER A LARGE

This jacket fits me perfectly. I'm about 6 foot 1 inch, and 150 lbs. To say I'm skinny would be an understatement. Anyway, I usually fit into a men's medium for most jackets. Schott recommends one size up, but if you are as skinny as me then just order your regular size. Do not be scared away by made in China, this jacket is very good quality.

High quality, lightweight jacket great for city wear.

I’m 6’1, 190, athletic build and the large fits me like a glove.

I liked the shape but arms are too tight. Otherwise, it’s good shape and good quality.

I bought this jacket on yesterday from Schott Nyc store in Helsinki Finland and it is amazing jacket. I am 5'10 with athletic body and I tried medium and large sizes. Large fitted me perfectly. Got some discount too from the store. Still seems a bit expensive but worth the price! Go for it :)

I wanted a flight jacket like this but was a little hesitant because of the price. You can buy cheap ones at an Army Navy store but they are baggy and don’t really fit well or look good in my opinion. I bought this jacket and was ecstatic when I pulled it out of the box. Solid construction and materials and looks great! I’m 5’11” 165lbs and went one size up from my normal medium size. The large fit perfect and I feel like this jacket is well worth the price because of the slimmer fit and overall construction and quality of it. Very happy, thanks Schott for making another great jacket!

Fantastic jacket! Better quality than the cheap versions. I am about a 40 short with broad shoulders and size L fits perfectly! As always, great stuff from schottynyc. I buy all my fancy stuff from here.

I really like that Jacket because of the close fit. I owned other A1 regular fit, and it is good to have both depending on the weather and what layer one wants to add underneath. I suggest this with T Shirt only,
I am 178cm tall, 83kg and got size L.

I love this jacket and bought a 2xl which fits good but is longer than I like. I'm 6'0 and 205 with long legs and short torso.

Perfect fit and looks great. Functional too, wore it in heavy rain and the nylon proved to be fairly water resistant if not completely waterproof. Liner is very warm and extremely comfortable. Great jacket, would recommend going true to size, up one if you're between sizes.

This MA-1 Slim-fit Bomber jacket is awesome. I'm 6'3" and weigh about 210 lbs. I normally wear a size XL in most jackets including the Schott 530 cafe racer leather jacket. I tried the XL and think it could have worked if I was only going to wear a t-shirt under this jacket. The XXL was a better fit and still gives a slim look. For this style of jacket I think the length and overall proportions are great. The blue color looks really rich and is darker than what is shown on Schott's website. I would definitely recommend this jacket. Thanks Schott NYC

Surprisingly warm! Excellent quality
I'm usually between a large and XL had to go for the 2xl and it fit perfect!

Materials and construction are fantastic.
I got the Slim Fit as you can see and yes its slim and therefore tight. I wear a medium and ordered a medium. Site does suggest going up one size for this model. Fits tight all around. Still trying to figure out if it's okay. Cause I do want it slim but feels tight. Otherwise the Jacket will draw anyone's attention. Great look@

Great quality warm and a good price

The jacket is great quality with sturdy seams and fabric and a heavy duty metal zipper. I wear a small in shirts and am 5'6". I first ordered the grey jacket in small and it was too tight in the arms and chest. Since I plan on wearing more than a T-shirt in winter, I returned it and ordered the medium. It looks like a bulky Letterman's jacket I borrowed from my big brother. The jacket is great, just better suited to someone who doesn't work out much.

Great fitting, top tier MA1 style jacket. I've owned others (alpha Industries) and this jacket supercedes all others in terms of materials, craftsmanship and overall fit. Am very happy with my purchase. Great customer service as well. Very pleasant and informative staff over at SchottNYC. Thanks you guys!

I bought one and a friend of mine loved it. So, I bought another jacket in Navy within a week. She then changed her mind for color. I sent it back to Schott for exchange and got a replacement in a week. What a customer service! She loves the jacket in Navy.

Just a note about the size. Schott suggests ordering one size larger but these jackets are meant to be slim fit as the title says. I would suggest you stick with your normal size. If you want some room, then you should get a regular fit jacket instead, and save some $$.

Great jacket and great fit. Fitted in the sleeves, tighter in shoulder, falls at the belt line, looks sharp. Going to order an additional one in another color. Definitely order a size up, you'll love it.

First of all, if you are interested in "Khaki", be warned that what you see in the main photo here is NOT what you get. It is more like Dark Mossy Green. The color that you see in two close-up photos. Very misleading but I like the actual color so decided to take the 'misfortune'.

Apart from that, this is one awesome jacket indeed.

The fabric is super heavy duty yet flexible enough.

I usually wear SMALL but got MEDIUM per the reviews here and recommendation from CS. SPOT ON!

Now it is time to break it in!!
