Yes. If you can wear a size 36. It is somewhat rare and appears to be in very good condition. In fact, it's Crown zipper, alone, is almost worth the jacket's asking price.

The jacket in this sale is the reason why so many people think some MA-1s were issued in blue. It is a B-15C and when it was made, it had a mouton collar. The USAF later modified it by removing its mouton collar and replacing it with knit...and adding the white mod tag. The the casual observer, B-15D and C-mods look much like sage and blue MA-1s...hence, the long-living myth of the blue MA-1.
