Review: Bomber lover - It is an amazing jacket I have ever had.
Review: 5'10" 165 pounds size large=perfect fit - This jacket is absolutely gorgeous!, 100% quality as all of Alpha industries jackets are, but coming from a Rothco Awu-45p to this is literally Night and Day it's absolute perfection, just take the plunge you will not regret it, I will never wear another jacket ever again, once again I am 47 years old, I am 5'10" and weigh 165 pounds, and the large is perfect with or without a hoodie underneath, perfect jacket but I recommend sizing up unless your a toothpick.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do they come in the size XL Tall ?**
A: No... large

**Q: Can this Jacket be washed in the washer? It is nylon and says dry clean only which makes no sense.**
A: To be honest I had just received this several days ago.  I can say they run snug so I ordered the next size up and the fit is fine.The material is a nylon outer shell with a polyester fiber fill.  The tag does state " Dry Clean Only "  I've never machine washed any jacket or coat I've owned with the exception of my Levi Denim.Clearly  put I would follow the manufacturers  suggestion regarding cleaning and avoid ruining the jacket or its finish by laundering and drying.I realize not the answer you're seeking.  But I did reply asap.

**Q: Brass or  steel zip?**
A: Brass. This is the cold weather flight jacket (more insulation) and I think it’s slightly better construction than the mil spec version (I’ve owned several) although nylon not nomex.

**Q: How many outside pockets does it have?     how many inside pockets does it have?**
A: I do not have it with me but I believe it has two large outside pockets and one inside on the left side.
