THE MA-1 IS ONE OF THE MOST RECOGNIZABLE GARMENTS IN FASHION AND STREETWEAR CULTURE TODAY. AFTER THE VIETNAM WAR, MILITARY SURPLUS CLOTHING WAS EMBRACED AS AN EMBLEM OF REBELLION – AND THE MA-1 FOUND ITSELF AS THE CENTER OF COUNTER-CULTURE IN THE 1970s AND 1980s. WITH 60 YEARS OF CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE, THE MA-1 IS REVERED AS AN ICON THAT WAS MADE FOR HEROES, WORN BY ICONS — WITH ANOTHER 60 YEARS OF CONTINUED RELEVANCE AHEAD.
