FAQs
What does 'TT' stand for in MA-1 TT?
'TT' typically stands for 'Transitional Temperature,' indicating the jacket is designed for milder weather conditions.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The nylon shell is water-resistant, meaning it can repel light rain for a short period, but it is not fully waterproof. It is best suited for dry or lightly wet conditions.
How do I know if the slim fit is right for me?
The slim fit is more tailored through the body and sleeves. If you prefer a looser fit or have a broader build, you might find it restrictive. Referencing a size chart and comparing it to your body measurements is recommended.
What is the "Remove Before Flight" tag for?
This is a decorative and iconic detail inspired by actual tags used on aircraft equipment to ensure safety by reminding personnel to remove crucial components before flight.
Can I wear this in cold winter weather?
This jacket is best suited for transitional weather (spring and fall). For very cold winter conditions, layering with warmer garments underneath would be necessary.
What other colors and sizes are available?
Alpha Industries offers the MA-1 TT in various colors and sizes. Please check the product catalog for the full range of available options.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If persistent, contact customer support.
Jacket appears too tight despite being the correct size.
The MA-1 TT has a slim fit. Ensure you are comparing it to the intended fit. If it restricts movement significantly, consider checking if a larger size or a different fit style is available.
Nylon fabric is creased after storage.
Hang the jacket on a padded hanger. You can also try steaming it on a very low setting, keeping the steamer a safe distance from the fabric. Avoid direct ironing.
