This version of the classic MA-1 flight jacket is perfect for warm temperatures. While the original MA-1 was designed to protect pilots from the harsh conditions of cold climate zones the TT model was conceived to deliver the opposite its light nylon construction and the absence of padding promote breathability while retaining the superior quality and versatility you expect from Alpha. The MA-1 TT is similar to the MA-1 in terms of appearance it also comes with the iconic red flight tag and pencil box on the left sleeve but it actually features a slimmer cut to promote a closer fit to your body. Since its a summer jacket it was conceived to allow space for a shirt but not for these Norwegian sweaters many grandmas love to give away on Christmas Eve. As a result the MA-1 TT is a great companion for mild summer nights.
