Before social media and the laundry list of online startups, eBay was the original sneaker marketplace. The platform has built a reputation as a destination for must-have new releases, rare collectibles, and the most sought-after collabs. To add to their credibility, they're also ensuring those new kicks are genuine. With the no-fee Authenticity Guarantee service, collectible sneakers — now including Jordan, Nike, Yeezy, Adidas, New Balance, Puma, Asics, Converse, Vans, and Reebok sneakers — over $100 are verified by an authentication partner. Pre-owned condition sneakers priced $300+ in the same brands also qualify. An NFC tag is fastened to each pair of sneakers and activated with a digital stamp of authenticity, customized with the sneakers' details, before they're delivered to the buyer. With the combination of selection, value, and authenticity, eBay continues to remain a trusted choice for sneaker collectors.

The MA-1 silhouette got its start in the mid-1950s when it became the flight jacket of the U.S. Air Force, Navy pilots, and ground crews. The originals removed the fur collar of the B-15 which came before it due to interference with parachute harnesses. This bomber adds to the legendary jacket's history with poly-fill, orange lining, and a modern cut for a slim fit. Details include two lower flap pockets, two interior welt pockets, as well as a utility pocket on the sleeve and knit ribbing on the collar, cuffs, and waistband. The timeless look is finished with a signature red "Remove Before Flight" flag and is available in black or olive, and it's an ideal weight for cool Fall mornings and evenings that can also transition to all-day wear during winter.
Sizing: Definitely slim, consider going up one size of your normal jacket size if any doubt.
