The material quality is much better than what was commonly available at bazaars in the '90s. The jacket is perfect for the transitional season. Just a t-shirt underneath is enough. It also works well in light rain, it doesn't soak through. Size L fits a man who is 187cm tall and 90kg perfectly, even with a sweatshirt. I recommend it!
Brandit MA1 Jacket - Black
Insulated jacket in Black, designed after classic flyer-style bomber jackets. Constructed with a tough, wind-resistant nylon shell. An inner lining and polyester insulation ensure effective defense against cold weather.
Reversible design
The MA1 offers the versatility of being worn both inside out and right side out. The interior showcases a high-visibility orange lining, a feature inspired by the original design of MA-1 jackets for USAF pilots. In emergencies or crashes, the striking orange made pilots easier to locate for rescue teams. This practical aspect also provides increased safety for those walking on poorly lit roads beyond urban environments.
5 spacious pockets
The MA1 model is designed with two side pockets featuring snap-flap closures, as well as two internal pockets secured by snaps. An extra zippered pocket on the sleeve comes equipped with a built-in organizer for pens or compact gear.
Main closure and knitted cuffs
A durable zipper serves as the primary closure. Ribbed cuffs at the collar, wrists, and waist offer enhanced protection from the cold and ensure a snug, secure fit.

A little update :) after the recent frosts. The jacket performed perfectly, paired with a light hoodie it worked well even on longer walks. I don't know what else to write, this is an opinion after a few months of wearing it, so I won't add anything else.

World-class! Size M fits a person who is 178 cm tall and weighs 84 kg, although I also considered L, as it would be a bit looser and maybe more comfortable. Ultimately, I chose M so that it would fit well even with an extra sweater underneath. Opinions suggesting to choose a smaller size, in my opinion, are inaccurate—my body build is average. The material and quality of workmanship are outstanding—it's probably the best brand when it comes to this type of jacket. I really liked the double cuffs on the sleeves—closer to the hand, they are tighter and more densely woven. This shows attention to detail, and the outer material is durable yet pleasant to the touch—you can see the high quality, and the price is not excessive. In my opinion, this is the best jacket I've owned so far—it's comfortable and looks elegant. Additionally, I must confirm that the jacket keeps you very warm—even at -8 degrees, a thin sweater and T-shirt are enough. I am positively surprised by its thermal insulation properties. The jacket is light, very comfortable, and solidly made. I also disagree with the opinions about the zipper—it works very smoothly and lightly for me, there's no need to lubricate it. It's the best zipper I've come across in jackets—it doesn't jam while zipping up or down. If it sometimes opens, it's due to a special military solution where, when pressed from above, the zipper releases itself—the so-called auto-lock. The jacket is great. I'm attaching a few photos to show the workmanship.

The black Brandit MA1 jacket is a stylish choice because it is very fashionable and practical, inspired by the classic pilot jacket. It's warm, comfortable, and made from excellent quality materials, perfect for colder days when paired with a good fleece sweater. The classic cut adds elegance and suits various styles. I highly recommend this timeless classic bomber jacket.

Great jacket – it works well for both everyday urban use and light outdoor trips. It's pleasantly warm and very comfortable, making it suitable for cooler days without restricting movement. The material is solid – after extended wear there are no signs of wear, no tearing, no pilling, and it retains its original appearance. The bright orange lining adds character and makes it easy to find the jacket in a bag or backpack. The cut is well-fitted but allows freedom of movement, and the neat finishing and durable zippers highlight its high quality. It's a practical choice for those looking for a combination of functionality, comfort, and a modern look.

Great jacket, very comfortable and warm, well made, size matches the chart, nice color, solid zipper, no problems. The jacket is worth the price and worth buying. I recommend it.

At a height of 173 cm and weight of 70 kg, size M was too big. I think for a height of 176-178 cm and weight of 74-75 kg it would be just right. As for the jacket itself, it is high-quality and waterproof, so you can confidently buy it.

Everything is ok! The size matches the description and measurements. The jacket is solid. Good value for money. In reality, it's even nicer than in the photos. Interesting color. A true FLEK, just like the old days :) I recommend!

Nice warm jacket, I bought it for myself wanting to remember my youth :):):). The description of the jacket on Militaria.pl is absolutely true. L fits perfectly for 185 cm and 90 kg. Comfortable, just wipe lightly with wax and the zipper works great. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone.
