Type 1 - Early-style Gemini/Apollo flight jacket
LIMITED RUN ONLY - These jackets are built from the ground up using historic examples to recreate the original "Type 1" NASA Flight Jacket, exactly as they were worn by Gemini, and Apollo astronauts & crews.
All facets match the original Type 1 jackets exactly: including single-piece woven cuffs, exposed sleeve zipper, khaki colored main zipper, original new-old-stock nickel pocket snaps, custom dyed vintage orange lining fabric, and a soft non-water resistant blue shell fabric that is indistinguishable from the original.
THESE JACKETS FEEL GREAT RIGHT OUT OF THE BAG!
Each jacket comes with a vintage-style "Type 3" NASA logo patch sewn on. These are embroidered on original machinery with vintage materials, matching the originals in every way (a $25 value alone). Also sewn to the jacket is a piece of Velcro Brand loop tape for your name badge and wings on the right chest, as worn originally by NASA astronauts (and we now make custom vintage-style leather wings AVAILABLE HERE).
This isn't anything you've seen before. Luna Replicas spent nearly a year developing these jackets with our custom manufacturer in Los Angeles, to bring you the finest wearable, museum-quality reproduction possible. You will not be disappointed.
U.S. Men's Chest Sizes 36 through 52 will be available in this limited run.

Better than advertised! The quality of this jacket is amazing. The details are spot on and the weight is perfect. The fit chart is correct so I’m happy I followed it and got the right size. There’s nothing about this jacket that is less than top notch. The zipper color and quality, even the cuffs and waist material are great. The color is better in person than the photos. The NASA patch is done right and sets it off.
Got my Type 1 jacket recently and LOVE it. My wife was skeptical of the 'powder blue' but ended up loving the color. My oldest kid also keeps trying to steal it! Overall, an excellent jacket AND statement piece in my closet!
It's just a beautiful jacket. The quality of materials speaks for itself, and wearing it out and about is a good time. It's a light jacket that goes with anything and fits true to size.
I have wanted one of these jackets for a long time. I wasn't disappointed.
Apparently, Iook really cool in it!! LOL
Excellent gift for the NASA fan in your life.
