Why the Alfa " MA-1 " continues to be a timeless classic, three characteristics and a classic model!

Three notable features of the Alfa “MA-1

Alpha “MA-1″ feature 1: ” Nylon fabric that boasts excellent thermal protection thanks to its padding and ribbing

The traditional material used for MA-1 is nylon twill. It is an excellent fabric that is resistant to abrasion, has good coloring, and is pleasant to the touch. In addition to the classic sage green, Alfa offers a variety of other colors, and the appeal of this fabric is that it will change over time as it is worn, bringing out its original flavor. Although it appears to be thin at first glance, it is filled with padding, and the ribs on the sleeves and hem provide excellent wind and cold protection. Since it was originally designed to be worn in areas with temperatures ranging from -10 to -10 degrees Celsius, there is no doubt that it is perfectly warm.

The “Rescue Orange” lining is also meaningful!

With the exception of some special edition models, orange lining is the norm. In the 1960s, soldiers were instructed to wear the orange lining side up in the event of a plane crash or other unforeseen incident. This is the reason why Alpha’s MA-1s are reversible even today.

Alpha “MA-1” feature 2: “Traditional cigar pocket and unique red tag

The zippered cigarette pocket on the left arm, which holds an emergency kit and cigarettes, is a detail that has been inherited since the MA-1’s birth. This is one of the features that distinguish the Alpha from ordinary short-length blousons. Another unique feature of the Alpha is the red tag attached to the cigarette pocket. This tag is attached to the safety device to prevent missiles and bombs on board fighter planes from being accidentally triggered. As the phrase “REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT” suggests, the tag is normally removed before flying, but when wearing the MA-1, you can leave it on or remove it, depending on your preference or mood.

Alpha “MA-1″ Characteristics (3) ” Short length silhouette that fits the modern style

The short length silhouette is another notable feature of the MA-1. The short length of the MA-1 is due to the fact that the half-coat style is not suitable for pilots who sit in a narrow cockpit and hold the controls. In addition, Alpha has brushed up the silhouette so that it can be used for town use as well, making it adaptable to modern styles. The classic military look and functionality of the MA-1 is maintained, but it can be worn with a wide range of other items.
