Product Description

Alpha Industries Men's MA-1 Blood Chit Flight Bomber Jacket, Sage, X-Small

AUTHENTIC DESIGN - This version of the Alpha Industries MA-1 fighter pilot flight jacket has an authentic, time-specific “Blood Chit” sewn into the Emergency Orange lining. The chit was type of flag that contained a specific message in several languages in case the pilot was shot down. This message identified the person as a U.S. Aviator, with instructions asking to aid this person avoid capture as well as to bring them back safely to U.S. forces, and with a reward being offered.
INDIVIDUAL STYLE - Signature red ribbon hang tag on the sleeve utility pencil pocket and the Alpha Industries logo on the zig-zag zipper extension let you show off your style. Knit-rib cuffs, collar, and waistband, two lower flap pockets, two interior welt pockets, and shirred sleeves round out the look.
FORM & FUNCTION - Reversible flight jacket with water-resistant nylon on both sides and double zipper pulls. Staying true to its original design, the MA-1 interior reverses to an Emergency Orange lining that was originally designed for downed pilots to signal for help.
FIT & RECOMMENDED USE - MA-1 flight jacket has a Core fit with extra room in the body and sleeves and sits just above the hip at waist length. Perfect as a layering piece in mild or moderate weather.
MATERIALS & CARE INSTRUCTIONS - 100% Flight nylon shell, 100% nylon lining, and 100% polyester fill. Dry clean only.
