A solid jacket. First I ordered an L, because I thought it would fit, being 180 and 70kg, but it was too big! However, I returned it and changed it for an M and the whole process was very quick and smooth, very professional, for which I am grateful. The M size is ok, though I usually prefer a bit slimmer jackets. M still feels a tiny bit roomy so I keep wondering if S would be a tiny bit better... But it could also be a bit too small. So I can't count this as negative. Other than that, as said the jacket is ok, decent pockets and zipper, ok lining. A small negative is the hood which feels a bit impractical/cheaply made. Just doesn't fit really well. And the material can feel a bit stiff, which I guess is a limitation of polycotton. And personally, blue color is also more on a "bright" side like the one seen on the model pictures, less "dull" blue like on the first picture, which I would prefer. But I hope it will wash out with time.
Brandit M65 Classic Jacket with detachable liner - Woodland
Warm year-round jacket in Woodland camouflage pattern inspired by the legendary M-65. It features a detachable liner, hood hidden in the collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two waist pockets) and epaulettes on the shoulders.
This model is a faithful reproduction of the M65 fit used by the US Army since the Vietnam War. The M65 is a true legend - practical, comfortable, spacious and durable. It has gained many followers around the globe. Interestingly, it has been frequently used in films and TV series, worn by characters portrayed by actors like Sylvester Stallone in "Rambo", Robert De Niro in "Taxi Driver" and Bronisław Cieślak in "07 zgłoś się".
solid construction, detachable liner
External layer is made from a fabric blend of strong polyester (80%) and breathable cotton (20%). The inside of the jacket has a thin polyester lining, enhancing the comfort of wearing. The set includes a detachable liner with synthetic filling with excellent thermal insulating properties, providing great protection against the cold. For user convenience, the liner is stabilized with buttons placed at the neck and in the sleeves. Thanks to the liner, the jacket is perfectly suitable for wearing all year round.
4 spacious pockets
Model equipped with four practical pockets fastened with snaps:
- two on the chest
- two waist pockets
adjustable cuffs, drawstrings at the waist, epaulettes on the shoulders
Cuffs adjustable with velcro and drawstrings at the waist provide protection against the cold and an excellent fit to the silhouette. Epaulettes on the shoulders impart a unique character to the jacket.
Zip secured with a windproof strip
Model M65 is fastened with a zipper, which can be additionally covered by a windproof strip fastened with snaps. This aids in better heat retention under the jacket and protects against strong wind penetration through the zipper. The strip also guards against the zipper getting blocked by dirt, dust, and sand, and prevents freezing of water or clumping of snow.

Woodland Camouflage
Woodland, also known as U.S. Woodland or M81, is a classic camouflage pattern introduced to the US Armed Forces in the early 1980s, based on the earlier ERDL camouflage. For over two decades, it remained the standard pattern used by the US military until the end of the first decade of the 21st century. It is characterized by large, irregular patches in shades of green, brown, beige, and black, which provide good camouflage and deformation properties, especially in wooded areas. Thanks to its effectiveness and global recognition, it has spawned numerous variations that have found their way into over 60 uniform formations around the world. The pattern has also had a huge impact on popular culture, shifting from military applications to everyday fashion.

Wonderful purchase! I am very satisfied with the jacket – the quality is excellent and everything fits perfectly. I especially want to thank the staff for their professional advice. The shop's service was pleasantly impressive: from ordering to receiving, everything went quickly and smoothly. I recommend it!

I’m 5’8 of average build and brought the Medium, it’s a perfect fit. Very high quality tough material, not too heavy and bulky, very stylish too. I originally got this for bush craft activities but it’s too good for that! Love it.

I’m 5’8, 13 stone and got Medium, the fit is absolutely perfect! For what I paid the quality is astonishing! Service and postage was second to none from this great company. I wouldn’t buy from anywhere else!

Excellent! Very practical and versatile. I am 1.79 m tall and weigh 85 kg, size L was suitable for me, but as I am slimmer, I only use it with the lining. I am considering ordering another one.

I am satisfied with the product. I chose the size carefully and it fits me perfectly. The clothing is good for cold weather, for now I wear it without layers. Functional pockets with snaps, solid zipper, and snaps on top. The only thing that bothered me a bit is the sleeve extension – when it's folded and fastened with the Velcro inside, it's a bit awkward to get your hand through the sleeve and check the time. I absolutely love the 'dark camo' colour. The price is fair.

Can't believe how good quality the m65 brandit jacket is. I think it's the best jacket at the price I've ever bought. Loads of detail and really true size. It's a jacket for all season's, with the removable lining. Can't believe how many people have commented. If you purchase this jacket I can guarantee you will not be disappointed. I'd also like to comment on how good military eu is on customer service and returns.

Absolutely amazing M65 field jacket! I ordered it for my birthday and it arrived on time from Poland to the UK. I’m very impressed with the quality of the fabric and the craftsmanship. I usually wear size XL, and this jacket fits true to size. Highly recommended for anyone interested in classic M65 jackets.
-
The jacket is well made and costs very little, so the quality-to-price ratio is excellent. The classic style looks great, I definitely recommend it.

Great value for money for a pretty faithful reproduction of the original M65. I'm 175 cm tall, 88 kg with a 43 inch chest (110cm) and the XL was too baggy. Return process was straightforward. Size L is perfect for me. I can wear a shirt and fleece under the jacket when the liner is attached and an extra thicker layer when the liner is removed. Quality is, generally, good. A lot of loose threads underneath the lining which you only see if you look underneath the inner lining. I had to move one of the shoulder buttons as the epaulette looped up and wouldn't lie flat. The Brandit label inside the jacket is large and water resistant, and can get quite sweaty after moderate use. I could pick the stitching and remove it. Other than that, I really like the jacket and do not regret the purchase.

This jacket is worth considering, especially at the current promotional price. It is not suitable for very severe frosts, but it is comfortable, has large pockets and a universal cut. I recommend it to anyone undecided – it really is worth buying.
-
Really iconic design – this collar is very masculine. It looks really cool if your build isn’t slim. On the downside, the pocket placement is a bit dated. For soldiers in the 1960s this may have been the norm, but nowadays it’s just inconvenient. There are also no side pockets at the bottom, so it’s impossible to walk around with your hands in the pockets of this jacket. The hood is purely nominal. The lining is quite short: both around the neck and at the waist area.

Height 187 cm. Weight 110 kg. Ordered XXXL. It turned out to be very big. At NP post office I was told I could only inspect, not try it on. In the size chart, the difference between XXL and XXXL is literally 1-2 cm. Now I’m hesitating which size to choose. Maybe XL? I call the seller's phone - only a robot responds! I initiated a return process, waiting now. The quality is not bad. Some threads are sticking out, but it's easy to fix. The seams are double, strong, and even. Feels soft to the touch. You don't feel synthetic. Large collar. Overall, I liked the quality. But choosing the exact size is a problem. According to the table, it's not accurate, doesn't match the real sizes. The price is good. Delivery was fast and free for orders from 2999 UAH. Now I'm waiting for a refund and maybe I'll order again.

I don't know about anyone else, but this jacket is very convenient for me. I use it for everyday needs (defending the country). Dirt comes off easily, it's comfortable, warm, and there is nothing unnecessary.
-
The jacket is carefully sewn. It has a very warm lining, which can be easily detached. It proved effective in temperatures from +6 to -7 degrees Celsius (without the lining) and it was enough to wear a fleece or an ordinary shirt underneath to feel very warm.
