Vintage M-65 Field Jacket

This is an awesome field jacket. Pockets are deep enough to carry anything you need. It's well stitched and the fit is great. It is a bit oversized but that's great for going over whatever you're wearing.

This is absolutely one of the best coats I’ve ever owned. Extremely functional, looks great and not too heavy. I’m almost always “too hot” so I don’t need a really heavy clumsy coat, not to say it’s not warm, it is but it’s just not heavy and bulky where I can’t wait to get it off. The other day it was in the 20’s and the wind was crazy, I put this on and didn’t feel the wind one bit!! The liner comes out so you can rock it early spring and fall on those chilly mornings. I will say this, ORDER SMALLER!!! I am 5’11, 230 lbs with broad shoulders. I generally wear an XL shirt that’s snug on the upper body and biceps, for hoodies and jackets sometimes I’m a 2XL. So I ordered one and it was for someone much much larger than me. Exchanged for an XL, still too big. I haven’t worn a L anything in decades but with this? I’m a Large and it’s still plenty big where I have room but it’s not tight on my shoulders, it’s still a relaxed fit, only this time it doesn’t go down to my knees! Overall I’m very happy. I have a bunch of Rothco shorts and have some now for 3 years, washed after each wear and no holes, or loose stitching, maybe some fading on some of the darker color camo but that’s 3 years and A LOT of washes. Quality stuff, don’t bother with cheap imitations.

I hate Chinese made crap. Having said that this matches the ucmc marpat camo of my usmc gear. It fit well. I am 6 ft 1 and 220. Fabric seems good. Has a good inner liner for warmth. Its a pricey for being made in China. The product overall is good but Chinese made means what about durability over time? I dont know. A big negative is they put on a highly shiny reflective copper colored zipper,….. on a camouflage military replica jacket why? They need to change that.

The jacket came right on time. It fits me perfectly (I ordered the Large size (HEIGHT 66"-71" CHEST 41"-45") - it's warm, has a detachable liner (I wear it without the liner and unzipped since it's pretty mild here), has a concealable hood, it's comfortable, durable (ran it through the washing machine several times already!), VERY reasonably priced and stylish. I love how the collar looks and how great the jacket feels! As an added bonus, I RARELY see anyone wearing this type of jacket (most people haven't quite realized just how important it is to distinguish yourself a bit from the pack, both personally and professionally, seriously, it's how you get people to notice you without saying a word. This is THE urban survivalist jacket to own! My only complaint about it is the number of loose threads I keep finding in certain parts of the jacket - particularly on the inside, around the buttons and the hood too. I think that's pretty standard with most clothing I've owned over the years though. But, it's nothing a good pair of scissors can't fix! Also, since it's part white it may stain easier in certain spots (no problem, just keep some stain cleaner handy and watch out for mustard) Overall I highly recommend this Jacket! Best quality jacket I've owned in years!

When they say 'lightweight' they mean it. This thing is about as heavy as some thick shirts that I've owned; which isn't necessarily a bad thing. This jacket has no lining to speak of, it's one just layer. This would be fine, except for storing the hood. If you have worn an M-65 before, you will know that the hood rolls up and is stored inside the collar of the jacket. The hood ends up hanging down the back of the jacket, between the lining and the outer shell. On this version, due to the lack of lining, the hood remains inside the collar band at all times. This unfortunately means that the collar of the jacket is very bulky and noticeably heavier than the rest of the jacket. This is certainly something you could learn to live with, but it just seems like a massive design flaw. Personally I am considering ripping the hood out, as I seldom use this on my regular M-65 anyway. The colour of the jacket is accurately described as Sage. Meaning it's a slight lighter, more desaturated colour than the traditional Olive Drab. Overall, if you are looking for a lightweight field coat, this is pretty great. As with all military clothing, buy a size down from what you normally would.

発送も早く、丁寧に梱包されていました。しかし、サイズが分かり難く、XXLでは大きすぎて困りました。サイズを分かり易く表示して貰いたいと思いました。

Super passt

Veste légère dit-on? Une guenille. Les zippers sont plus lourd que la veste.

Excelente calidad Talla perfecta

This is a great jacket. I live in Northern Alberta and it keeps me warm in winter (granted I do layer underneath the jacket). The zipper is, as previously reported by others stiff, but works ok. I had an army surplus jacket similar to this when I was a kid and was looking for the same loose fit, So I am only going to add to the size debate. I am normally a size XL and I purchased an XL (and not a size smaller as recommended in other reviews). I wanted to be able to wear layers underneath yet still have the jacket fit loose enough that I could shovel snow. I am totally happy with my purchase.
