Alpha Industries
Military-issue duds with civilian niceties

Available at Army Surplus Sales Inc: 342 Peachtree St;
Downtown; 404.521.2227

All sorts of technology gets handed down from the military,
like assault rifles, advanced interrogation techniques, and
even more questionably, Hummers. And clothing, now tweaked
for civilian use by Alpha Industries.

A revered brand that's been crafting military duds and
surplus civilian gear for five decades, Knoxville-based
Alpha's celebrating their 50th anniversary with a
just-into-ATL line of jackets that reflect the clothier's
armed forces heritage while separating the duds from the
real stuff via style/comfort upgrades and handy features
like iPod pockets, and colors like not-camo. Lighter
outerwear starts with the olive-green Defense, in heavy
washed denim with an internal cell/MP3 player pocket, and
the zip-up cotton/corduroy Lancer, which gets four square
front pockets and buttoned shoulder epaulets; you can also
get comfortably hooded with the nylon A.W.O.L., featuring a
too-plush-for-the-trenches detachable mouton liner, or the
McGyver, which has five front pockets, a detachable hood,
and the uncanny ability to turn Dentyne, Dipsy Doodles, and
turkey gravy into a bomb. Heavier-duty duds include the
reversible woodland & desert camo Sumatra (ripstop nylon w/
sealed seams), while things get more serious with jackets
like the Injector (in a yellow not suited for the front
lines, w/ removable mock fur collar) or the 50th
Anniversary, w/ assorted red/black patches, a large sling
strap on back to carry it, and a front strap that'll hold
your watch, after you retrieve it from Christopher Walken's ass.

Because Alpha wants to clothe you in every way possible,
there's also the 50th Anniversary hoodie (w/ "ALPHA" across
zip-up front), tees like the Lady Liberty (featuring a
sword-toting, helmeted woman w/ stars shooting from her
head), and even replicas of full-body NASA flight suits that
feature the authentic NASA "meatball" patch, which will
perfectly compliment your look as you fuel up your H3.
