Iconic Jackets
In October, 1959, more than 50 years ago, Alpha Industries began its
operations making military clothing in the basement of a rented
Knoxville, Tennessee factory using leased sewing machines and only a few
employees. The first few years were very difficult for newly formed
Alpha because it was a time of peace and the U.S. Defense Department purchased only small quantities of
military clothing. However, the outstanding quality of Alpha’s
clothing quickly came to the Defense Department’s attention and
as America’s need for military clothing increased as the
Vietnam conflict deepened, Alpha’s growth as a manufacturer for
the Defense Department rapidly accelerated. |

Going Fashion
In recent years, Alpha has
taken its 50+ year old heritage and grown into an internationally
recognized brand global for military inspired casual wear.
Building on its superior and proven manufacturing and design
abilities Alpha now produces jackets, shirts, pants and many other
products worn by people worldwide along with their jeans, footwear
and other hallmarks of American casual styles.
Alpha has remained true to its history by continuing to produce
authentic military garments. But Alpha also has fulfilled the
expectations of its global customer base by continually developing
casual clothing that interprets its military heritage into products
that people want because of their unsurpassed performance
characteristics, design and quality.
