Yeah, well... you know by the time a product or brand makes it to a site like that and the copywriters get to use the word "Pop", it's all downhill from there. Just like an article I read about Alpha products some years ago. And there will be more, paid for by Alpha, you'd hope. What goes around, comes around; everything old is new again and other happy advertising cliches... The old Alpha MA-1 jackets were okay - for the past years they have been made in Vietnam, the ultimate in irony...

I love my Alpha M-65 and MA-1, but I doubt I'll be forking over the dough for prêt-à-porter Alpha...

I hear *******ized M-65 copies are going to be quite big with the kids soon. Maybe they already are.

And people still say America lost the war.
