FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is made from water-resistant flight nylon, which is effective against light rain but is not designed for heavy downpours.
Can I remove the hood?
The fur trim on the hood is detachable, but the hood itself is a fixed feature of the jacket design.
How should I clean the jacket?
Always follow the care label inside the garment. Typically, professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the nylon material.
Does the jacket fit true to size?
The jacket features a 'core fit' designed for comfort. If you plan to layer thick sweaters underneath, you may want to consider your standard size.
What is the benefit of flight nylon?
Flight nylon is favored for its exceptional durability, wind resistance, and lightweight nature, making it ideal for bomber jackets.
Troubleshooting
Fur trim looks matted or flat
Gently shake the fur or use a soft-bristled brush to fluff the fibers back into position.
Zippers feel stiff or difficult to move
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track; if necessary, apply a small amount of non-staining wax or graphite to the teeth.
Minor water-repellent performance loss
Use a specialized nylon-safe water-repellent spray to restore the jacket's weather resistance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Alpha Industries bomber, always check the interior garment label for specific laundering instructions. Because of the synthetic flight nylon and the detachable fur trim, it is generally recommended to remove the fur before any cleaning process. Avoid exposing the jacket to high heat or abrasive detergents, as these can compromise the water-resistant properties of the nylon. If the jacket becomes damp from light rain, hang it to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. To maintain the 'core fit' structure, store the jacket on a sturdy hanger rather than folding it for long periods to prevent unnecessary creasing.
