In 1959, Alpha Industries was commissioned by the Department of Defense to design and manufacture jackets for the US military. It all started in a rented factory in Knoxville, Tennessee: the beginning of the famous MA-1 flight jacket, to which new styles, patches and colors would then be added over the years.
Within a very short time, Alpha Industries has become the most famous manufacturer of MA-1, M-65 and N-3B: the brand that soldiers, sailors and pilots would later trust to protect themselves from the worst weather conditions.
The year 2019 also marked the 60th anniversary of the brand, a goal that Alpha Industries celebrated with a capsule collection and collaborations with other exclusive brands
