Review for model:

I'm not a big fan of very warm clothes, so I bought this jacket as a substitute for a ski jacket. However, it turned out to be heavier and thicker than I expected. It does have a removable lining, which makes it lighter if taken out. This is my first M65-type jacket, so I know that you can either love it or not like it. I bought it during a promotion for 150 PLN and I think it was a very good deal. The jacket is fairly basic. It has its drawbacks, but at the same time, it's hard to compare it to products from other manufacturers. I think that for such a price it's worth trying, even just to test it.

This is a fantastic jacket! I got the size just right, and its appearance really impressed me. It's well made, has a great colour and an attractive price. I definitely recommend it!

This is a great jacket for both hiking in the mountains and everyday use. Thanks to the removable insulation, it was also suitable during colder days. I am very satisfied because the jacket effectively protects against wind and rain. It is well fitted and has a good number of practical pockets, which is a big plus. Definitely worth buying – the price is very favourable.

Very good value for money. The jacket is comfortable and very warm – in mild frost I only needed a T-shirt and I was still warm. I'm not too keen on the Velcro collar, but if you wear a scarf, for example, you don't need to fasten it.

The jacket is worth its price and of good quality – the measurements given in the table are accurate, but I must add that the sleeves are quite long. It's worth impregnating the material. The liner keeps me sufficiently warm, but everyone has to assess this individually.

The jacket looks great, is well tailored, and appears to be durable. Although this is the basic version with a light lining, it provides plenty of warmth – it is completely sufficient for our winters. I agree with others that the material attracts dirt, which is even more visible on the black colour. The material is durable but slightly rough, which may be the cause. The sleeves are particularly long even with the cuffs turned up, so people with a larger build may be surprised when choosing their standard size. It is worth checking the size at a stationary shop. I definitely recommend the jacket, but pay attention to the above-mentioned aspects. The shop's service is commendable – everything went very quickly.

The jacket is aesthetically pleasing and carefully made, and the sizes correspond to the table. The liner provides excellent warmth, and the jacket protects well against wind and rain. The only drawback is that any dirt stands out very prominently.

For this price, it's quite a good jacket. In terms of quality, it's comparable to Brandit, solidly made. A big advantage is the removable lining. However, it might be a bit too thin at subzero temperatures.

A great jacket at a good price, which in the M65 version will always stand out on the market and attract all military enthusiasts who want to emphasise this with their outfit. In terms of usability, I rate it the highest!
