Shop the FADER and Alpha Industries’s limited-edition bomber jacket

For 20 years, the FADER has been the definitive voice of music and the lifestyle that surrounds it. To celebrate this anniversary, we’ve partnered with Alpha Industries to create a limited edition jacket that personifies that fearless ethos.

A special version of their MA-1 fighter pilot jacket, the FADER x Alpha bomber jacket is constructed from mid-weight, water-resistant flight nylon for a stylish and comfortable update to the historical piece. Available in Small, Medium, Large, X-and-XXL, this Replica Blue-colored wardrobe staple was kept as close as possible to the classic military specifications, with the numerous pockets, MA-1 utility sleeve pocket, and signature red "Remove Before Flight" flag all present.

Just as The FADER was the first print publication to be released on iTunes, the MA-1 fighter pilot jacket was the first military flight jacket to cross over into civilian fashion, making this collaboration especially representative of FADER’s forward-thinking ideals for the past 20 years, and indicative of what is to come in the next 20.

The limited-edition, water-resistant reversible jacket collaboration is available now on the FADER’s online shop.
