Hi,
my Alpha MA-1 arrived from the US yesterday, my wife wanted to see the cleaning label and I found in in the front pocket, I read the instructions and nearly fell over when I saw 'MADE IN CHINA' on the label
How long has Alpha had jackets made in China?
I could have bought a chinese MA-1 here in Norway but wanted an Alpha (thinking they were made in the US) because I thought they would be of better quality, are Chinese Alphas better quality than the average new MA-1 type jackets? (Now I know why it was cheaper than I expected).
I'm guessing that the Alpha jackets purchased by the US forces are not made in China?
cheers,
-John
P.S. so far it's an O/K jacket :|
