In the episode "The Invisible Killer" Mac wore leather work gloves. There are many different versions of these gloves. Wells Lamont makes gloves like this, but their version has a leather patch sewn onto the palm, which Mac's did not.

Is there any particular episode where it is clearly visible, that Mac wares Navy Blue MA-1 Jacket? Every time I think it's dark blue, in next shot I'm almost certain it's black...

Submitted For Your Consideration.
Given that a fair share of the clothing MacGyver wore was from Banana Republic, I think the warm-up jacket he's wearing in the picture below matches the one offered by Banana Republic back in the 80s. Mac wore this same warm-up jacket in "Blow Out". I can't prove the one Mac's wearing is in fact from Banana Republic but they look the same to me.

I had a pair of those and wore them until they fell apart. I remember pausing the VHS recording of "Blow Out" on the close up of Mac stepping on the pressure plate, so as to get as close of a look as I could at every detail. I then went out and bought a pair. I wish I would have bought two pair and kept one packed away so I could now add it to my MacGyver collection. Oh well, live and learn.

I wish I could get a replica of the custom made black leather jacket that Mac wore primarily in season 4. I've looked on ebay and amazon for similar ones. There are a few that are close but not close enough. Everytime I see him wearing that I say, "Damn, that looks good!"

Did you check out the thread Mac's Other Leather Jacket? It gives some detail about it.

Probably been asked before but does anyone know what kind of watch Mac was wearing in Nightmares? I always thought it looked cool.
Very good question.
It looks really familiar and I'm pretty sure I remember seeing people wearing these back in the 80's (my father may have even had one) but I have no idea what brand it is.
From the picture it looks like the watch has Chronosport Navigator written on it, but I can't find anything about that brand of watch.

Not to speak for Mac1977, but when "MacGyver" was up in Vancouver, I called the production office and spoke with Tommy Welsh, the Costume Department Supervisor. He said that one of the brands of clothing Mac wore was Levi's. He also said Mac wore clothing from Banana Republic, Eddie Bauer, L.L. Bean, Nike and Reebok to name a few.
I know the sport coat Mac wore in "Lost Love" from acquired from a company called Academy Clothes.

One of the other brands that Mr. Welsh mentioned was Comme des Garcons. This was the brand name of a black suit jacket Mac wore, I just don't know during which episode he wore it.

Paula, you're right it is a Levi's jean jacket. I've done searches on eBay and found several, just haven't bought one. Using the word "vintage" in your search. If you're looking for one as close to Mac's as possible, pay attention to the vertical seams on the front and the back. I've found there are slight differences in how they are positioned.

What I wouldn't give to be able to go through Paramount or CBS studios wardrobe and prop department looking for items worn / used on "MacGyver". While I'm sure after all these years, some of the items no longer exist, I'd be willing to bet some of the items are still housed in the massive warehouses each studio has.

Here is a screen cap from "Two Times Trouble" showing the back of mac's Jean jacket, You'll notice that the vertical seams are straight and end and the waist just inside of where the two waist buttons are (circled in red).
