Can this Jacket be washed in the washer? It is nylon and says dry clean only which makes no sense.

To be honest I had just received this several days ago. I can say they run snug so I ordered the next size up and the fit is fine.The material is a nylon outer shell with a polyester fiber fill. The tag does state " Dry Clean Only " I've never machine washed any jacket or coat I've owned with the exception of my Levi Denim.Clearly put I would follow the manufacturers suggestion regarding cleaning and avoid ruining the jacket or its finish by laundering and drying.I realize not the answer you're seeking. But I did reply asap.

Brass. This is the cold weather flight jacket (more insulation) and I think it’s slightly better construction than the mil spec version (I’ve owned several) although nylon not nomex.

How many outside pockets does it have? how many inside pockets does it have?

I do not have it with me but I believe it has two large outside pockets and one inside on the left side.
