The quality of workmanship falls short compared to the American contract versions, but at this price it's hard to expect more. With the small exception of the material and the zipper being sewn in the opposite way, it is a fairly faithful replica of the original. There are some inaccuracies in the description: the label indicates 100% polyester, and the lining, just like in the original, is fastened with buttons, not a zip.
Brandit M65 Classic Jacket - Woodland
All-season insulated jacket in Woodland camouflage, designed after the iconic M-65 model. It features a hood hidden in the collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two at the waist), and classic shoulder straps.
This jacket is a faithful strapss of the M65 military cut used by the US Army since the Vietnam War. This legendary style combines functionality, comfort, and durability, which has made it extremely popular worldwide. It frequently appears in pop culture – worn by Sylvester Stallone in "Rambo", Robert De Niro in "Taxi Driver", and Bronisław Cieślak in "07 Come In".
Durable construction, warm liner
The outer layer is sewn from a combination of polyester fibers (80%) and cotton (20%), providing durability and good air circulation. Inside, there is a light polyester lining that increases wearing comfort. The jacket comes with a removable liner filled with synthetic material featuring good thermal insulation properties, ensuring optimal protection against the cold. Buttons placed at the neck and sleeves keep it securely in place. Thanks to the liner, the jacket can be worn all year round.
4 spacious pockets
The model includes four functional snap-button pockets:
- two chest pockets
- two waist-level pockets
Adjustable cuffs, waist drawstrings, shoulder straps
Velcro-adjustable cuffs and waist drawstrings allow for a better fit and improved protection against the cold. Shoulder straps highlight the military style.
Zipper covered by a storm flap
The main zipper is covered by a snap-button storm flap, enhancing protection against wind and cold. The flap also reduces the risk of the zipper getting stuck due to dirt, moisture, or 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.

The jacket is excellently made. It has a very warm, easily removable lining. It worked well at temperatures from +6 to -7 degrees Celsius (without the extra lining) – a sweatshirt or a shirt underneath was enough to keep me really warm. Fully deserved 5 stars.
-
Well made, looks quite elegant, you can feel like Borewicz :) In very severe frosts, reaching almost -20 degrees, it doesn’t work as well anymore, but overall I am satisfied. A nice feature is the hood, which can be hidden. Unfortunately, the button snaps come undone easily on their own, so I’m taking off one star for that.

I bought a black M65 jacket and I am very satisfied with it. I usually wear size L, but after reading the reviews I decided to go for size M and it turned out to be a great choice – it fits perfectly. I am 170 cm tall and weigh 78 kg.

I have known this jacket for many years and I am always pleased to get such good quality for this price. With this jacket, I don't have the problem of actually using it, unlike with much more expensive and higher-quality garments, where possible stains or damage can significantly decrease their value... The jacket is made of robust material, is well made, and the fit is very good for me. I use it both as a work and everyday jacket from autumn into the cooler spring. The removable lining is good, as it keeps you really warm and feels comfortable to wear. The four pockets provide plenty of storage and are very practical to use with their press-stud closures. The adjustable waist allows for an optimal fit, especially when the lining is removed. The choice of colours is very varied and further emphasises the outdoor character in a positive way. A pity that there is no inside pocket. All in all, I am very satisfied with the jacket and can thoroughly recommend it. The friendliness towards customers and delivery performance of the Military Shop are professional and absolutely customer-oriented! Thank you very much.

I am very happy with the jacket – it is comfortable and keeps me warm, but I give it 4 stars because the zip by the hood is troublesome – it fastens properly, but then opens itself in the middle. Nevertheless, I recommend it.

I came looking for a jacket that would keep me warm but at the same time could wear daily really happy I got this one the size is perfect and the materials are high quality
-
Great jacket, solid quality, suitable both for everyday use and for outdoor trips or on the training ground. Thanks to the detachable, insulated layer, it can be worn all year round.
-
The jacket made of durable material works great thanks to its detachable lining. I think it's brilliant if you choose the right size! It's suitable for wearing all year round. Thanks to the solid fastening and warm lining, it can even be used on freezing days. I really like its cut and functionality, so I wholeheartedly recommend this military jacket to you as well.
-
Due to the unusual style and specific colouring, this product may not appeal to everyone. In the end, I returned the jacket, but I have to admit that it was made from solid materials and provides adequate protection against the cold, which I was able to check for myself.
-
I am very satisfied with the quality of this jacket. Thanks to the lining, it works great even in colder temperatures. I usually choose size M, but in this case the S fit well over a T-shirt, and after removing the lining I can easily wear a hoodie or sweater under the jacket. I went for the less expensive model because I wasn't sure if I'd like the style – it's great, but for my next jacket I'll look for a better material composition.
-
The shop works promptly. The jacket is a replica, good quality but it's not a Brandit M65. It just looks similar. I've been wearing these jackets for quite a while, so I give it 3 stars. I was specifically looking for a Brandit jacket.
-
The jacket is made from high-quality material, I am very satisfied with it because it is difficult to soak through, it is solidly made and provides excellent protection against cold and wind. It has a trendy colour, fits the figure very well and has very practical pockets. Thanks to the extra lining, it can be worn most of the year; I put it away in my wardrobe for severe frosts and hot summer, but it serves me successfully for 7-8 months of the year. I definitely recommend this model, it really is worth buying this jacket.
-
Great jacket, works in any weather thanks to the removable lining. The material is very good, although it does let water in during heavy rain. It looks fantastic, interesting design, I have no complaints. I give it the highest rating.

I am very satisfied with the purchase of this jacket; it works perfectly. It is very warm and sturdy. I use it every day—in one word, fantastic. The jackets run a bit large – at 175 cm tall and 73 kg, I chose size S, which fits perfectly with the lining. When the lining is removed, it’s slightly too big, but I’m still delighted with it. I definitely recommend it!
