Schott NYC MA-1 Nylon Flight Jacket - 9628.

A quintessential bomber made from sleek nylon boasts all the details of the classic military flight style marked with logo embroidery on the sleeve. Not only is the fully insulated design water and wrinkle resistant but it has a bright orange lining traditionally used for visibility when downed fighter pilots were trying to get rescued. The MA-1 bomber jacket 9628 was first introduced in the 1950's, but you could say that it's history goes back to 1935 when Dupont introduced synthetic thermoplastic polymer fiber that was used to create the first ever NYLON fabric. This revolutionary fabric was originally created for the U.S. Military. The U.S. Military first used it for parachutes, but soon it was put to use in many ways, including Flight Jackets. In the 1930s Military Pilots wore leather jackets, in the late 40s these aviators began wearing insulated jackets made of dense cotton, but by the 1950s U.S.A.F. Pilots were flying missions wearing the first ever issued NYLON Flight Satin MA-1s.
