Centering on its timeless MA-1 silhouette, Alpha Industries serves up two new POW/MIA “You Are Not Forgotten” and “Fear the Bones” jackets. Created in honor of National POW MIA Recognition Day, the pieces pay tribute to military members who were declared missing in action or labeled as prisoners of war.

The”You Are Not Forgotten” jacket features the POW/MIA flag on both the front and back, with various patches used in WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Shield/Desert Storm, Iraq and Afghanistan emblazoned on the sleeves.

The ”Fear the Bones” jacket draws inspiration from the actions of U.S. Jolly Rogers pilot, Jack Ernie, and features skull and femurs reflecting Ernie’s ”symbol of courage for those to follow.”

Take a look at the limited edition Alpha Industries jackets above and purchase over on the brand’s webstore.
