Fashion label Uniform Experiment recently introduced the Reversible MA-1 Blouson Jacket that doubles as both a bomber jacket and a button suit jacket. The iconic Uniform Experiment outerwear silhouette is comprised of a unique reversible and layered design that delivers a contrasting element of formal style and militaristic aesthetics. The bomber jacket side is an MA-1 flight jacket piece, and the reverse side is a three-buttoned suit jacket.
The entire MA-1 Blouson jacket challenges the idea with its strong contrasting style components. It is constructed from nylon twill materials on the flight jacket side, and on the suit jacket reverse it is crafted from a blend of polyurethane, rayon, and polyester. The bomber jacket also has snap pocket finishes, a zipper sleeve pocket, hem and cuff details, and a ribbed collar. The suit jacket has patch pocket details, a welt chest pocket with an insert for a pocket square, and a collar lined with metal wire. The outerwear piece is available for purchase online now at HAVEN for the price of $1,030 USD.
