About This Jacket:

Rickson has done a nice job recreating a 1950's model MA-1. The jacket has fine details and overall construction, and holds up to originals quite well. The cotton/wool lining is heavy, the color of the nylon just like some originals, and the knits are accurate. The sleeve ends are a bit on the large size, but there's always a photograph to back that design. I prefer more taper. The makers they're copying, Lion Uniform, made a large number of MA-1 jackets.
