I bought the jacket in December 2024 and have been using it for a second season now. It is very practical. Without the insulation, it works well for spring and autumn, and with the liner, it does the job in winter – with an additional sweatshirt, I had no trouble surviving the recent frosts and snow, and it does not let water in. The hood can be packed away, which is practical, although for me it is a bit too small so I rarely use it. The pockets are big and spacious. The size matches what's in the chart. I think it's an excellent purchase for the price and I can confidently recommend it.
Brandit M65 Standard kids jacket with detachable liner - Olive
All-season kids jacket in an olive drab shade, inspired by the legendary M65 model. Equipped with a detachable liner, a hood hidden in the collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two at the waist), and shoulder epaulettes.
The M65 fit model was used by the US military since the Vietnam War era. The M65 is a true legend - it is practical, comfortable, roomy, durable. It has gained recognition all over the world. Often seen in films and series, worn by characters such as Sylvester Stallone in Rambo and Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver.
polyester and cotton blend, detachable liner
A blend of materials (80% polyester and 20% cotton) was used in production, characterised by high tear resistance and protection against light rain. On the inside there is a cotton lining and a detachable liner filled with synthetic insulation. Thanks to this, the jacket is suitable for every season. For the child's comfort, it is secured with buttons sewn into the neck area and sleeves. Additional protection against the cold is provided by velcro-adjustable cuffs.
zip with windproof strip
The M65 fastens with a zip, which can also be covered with a windproof strip with snaps. This helps retain warmth under the jacket more effectively and protects against wind getting through the zip. The strip also prevents the zip from getting blocked by dirt, dust, and sand, and helps prevent water from freezing or snow from building up.
4 pockets
The model is equipped with four practical pockets closed with snaps:
- two at chest height
- two hip pockets

High durability: This is an “indestructible” jacket compared with regular children’s clothes from mass-market shops; it stands up excellently to physical wear and tear. Cool / vintage look: It offers a unique, utilitarian style that children love. Practical functionality: The large pockets and secure fastening (a zip covered by a press-stud flap) keep the wind out.

The jacket is solidly made and reasonably priced. My son is very pleased with it, and that is the most important thing for me. A small drawback is the lack of a drawstring at the waist, as there was in the original model.

I ordered this jacket for my Grandson for Christmas and I left it very late. I was really pleased with the excellent tracking provided so that I could follow the progress of my order and where it was. When it arrived I was amazed at the work in the jacket, down to the last detail. My Grandson loves it and it was excellent value. I bought the size 170 height for him and he is 14. It is a great fit. I would definitely recommend this company.

The quality-to-price ratio is very good, the jacket has a detachable liner and a stowable hood, it’s like a mini version of the M65 ;) It’s probably not suitable for very cold days or sub-zero temperatures, especially since my son gets cold easily, but overall he’s satisfied. He is about 150 cm tall and the jacket in size 146/152 is perfect for a slim boy.

The jacket surprised me very positively, Brandit has faithfully recreated the M65 in a children's version – the differences are only in details such as sewn-on epaulettes instead of buttoned ones, a slightly different placement of the buttons for the liner, and a different material, which is understandable. The quality is of course lower than the contract versions or Helikon ones (a lot of sticking out threads, etc.), but that doesn't matter, because my son's joy at having a jacket like his Dad's is priceless. As usual, a big plus for Militaria – I ordered it on Friday evening and the package was already in the parcel locker on Saturday morning.

I had to buy the jacket twice – the first time it was definitely too small, but the second time, when I chose a larger size, it fit perfectly. The jacket fits well, is warm enough even without the liner, and with the liner it’s not cold and protects well against the wind. Rain is not a problem. Instead of the hood sewn into the jacket, it’s more convenient to wear a hat, as the hood is a bit uncomfortable.

The jacket is very well made, the delivery arrived the next day, everything went perfectly. I am very satisfied with the purchase, and so is my grandson. I will definitely use your services again.
