The MA-1 is a type of flight jacket that is included in the bomber jacket category. Originally developed to be worn by pilots in the cockpit of a fighter jet, the MA-1 is characterized by its extremely simple design that prevents it from getting caught on instrument switches and other devices even when operating in the cockpit.

It is also important to note that the jacket is stuffed with padding to keep it warm in extremely cold weather, and that it was originally made of leather but has evolved to nylon to prevent freezing due to moisture that is generated by the difference in temperature between the sky and the ground. Also, since the emphasis is on thermal protection, the sleeves and hem are ribbed to prevent wind from penetrating the inside of the jacket.

It is also interesting to note that the “Rescue Orange” lining, a reversible vivid orange lining designed to make it easier for rescuers to find in the event of a disaster, is a meaningful detail.

Derivative types include the “N-2B with a hood attached,” the “N-3B type,” which is a longer coat type, and the “L-2B,” which is a thinner type. Recently, jackets with even more stripped-down details based on the MA-1 have been released by many brands as “MA-1” jackets, and they are gaining popularity along with the full-fledged types made by military brands.
