This isn’t an MA-1 thing in particular; common issue with Bronson.
Yeah I didnt mean it as a MA-1 specific issue, but didn't want to make a new thread for just the question.

The bronson is a nice jacket and thats the only issue I've had with mine so far, still open for suggestions if anyone has been able to "seal" the inner lining somehow.

Authentic or not? I don't know. I didn't undress one of these guys to inspect the garment. The MA-1 style is still pretty popular.

Hello everyone:). I looked at the thread and I applaud you for your knowledge of this iconic model that is the ma1. Beautiful and versatile. Since I have loved it for a while and I found a decent offer, I bought one, this one in the photo, in excellent condition. I imagine it dates back to the 80s, given the label and the details. However, I read in the thread that the most desirable would be the one from the 60s, 70s, right? This for the general quality? I saw that others recommended getting a modern series rather than an old made in USA like the one I have. I got a recent Alpha bomber, reflective fabric, and while I don't think it's bad, and it has slightly thicker cuffs, as far as general details go I don't think it's superior to the green made in USA that I got. I also wanted the original item with the historical fit (today I think it has changed a bit). However, I would love to have a ma1 from a few decades earlier, but I think it's difficult to find one in excellent condition and at a good price, right? Greetings to everyone again:)
