STRICT-G Launches New and Exclusive Hathaway Noa Flight Jacket
Bandai’s dedicated Gundam fashion brand STRICT-G has announced an exciting new collaboration with military clothing manufacturer ALPHA INDUSTRIES to produce exclusive garments based on Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe.
The collection is headlined by the “STRICT-G ALPHA Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Witch of Circe LIGHT MA-1 NATUS Hathaway Noa” flight jacket, which perfectly blends authentic military styling with subtle mecha aesthetics.
Mobile Suit Gundam revolutionized the animation landscape by treating giant robots as realistic weapons of war.
The Hathaway storyline follows the tragic journey of Hathaway Noa as he leads the anti-Earth Federation terrorist organization known as Mafty.
ALPHA INDUSTRIES has been a leading supplier of military apparel since 1959, bringing decades of authentic manufacturing expertise to this premium anime merchandise.
The Hathaway Noa themed L-2B flight jacket, priced at 46,200 yen (approx. £240 GBP / $305 USD), removes the heavy padding of a traditional MA-1 to create a versatile, all-season garment with a modern silhouette and a detachable hood.
It features a sleek black base highlighted by cerulean blue zippers and matching graphics representing the Xi Gundam.
Bright yellow stitching accents the inner sleeves to emulate the look of a standard pilot suit, while the back displays a reflective Mafty emblem.
Customers who purchase the premium jacket will receive a complimentary acrylic stand featuring original artwork of Hathaway wearing the jacket.
A wider range of apparel and accessories will also be on sale alongside the flight jacket:
- XI GUNDAM T-Shirt
- Price: 4,730 yen (approx. £25 GBP / $31 USD).
This comfortable cotton shirt features the English name of the mobile suit on the front and the Mafty logo on the back.

This bundle includes three unique designs highlighting Hathaway, Gigi Andalucia, and the Xi Gundam.

This zinc alloy collection contains five unique motifs, including Gigi’s earrings and the Fake Mafty logo.

General retail sales will also commence across Japan on Saturday, April 11, 2026.
