Very good jacket – light, made of cotton and natural materials. The lining is so warm that the jacket almost feels like a winter coat. An interesting feature is the possibility to wear the lining separately. It’s worth matching the size to your measurements, rather than relying on the standard sizing – I usually wear XL, but M is perfect.

A year-round jacket modeled after the popular M65 model used by the US Army during the Vietnam War. The outer layer is sewn entirely from durable high-quality cotton, which has been factory aged, giving the whole thing a distinctive vintage style.
M65 is a true legend - practical, comfortable, capacious, strong. It has been used many times in movies and TV series, and was worn by characters created by such actors as Sylvester Stallone in Rambo, Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver or Bronislaw Cieslak in 07 Come In.
The warm liner made of nylon filled with polyester fibers, is equipped with a zipper for quick and efficient attachment to the cotton-nylon lining. Thanks to the liner, the jacket is suitable for wearing at any time of the year.
The jacket is equipped with a concealed hood in the stand-up collar, 4 pockets (two each on the chest and waist) and shoulder marks. Additional protection against the cold is provided by Velcro adjustable cuffs and welts at the waist and at the bottom of the jacket.
The model fastens with a zipper, which can be additionally covered with a snap-fastened strip, which ensures better temperature maintenance and protects against wind penetration. The strip also prevents the zipper from blocking.

The jacket is not worth its price. Poor quality – threads sticking out everywhere, and the buttons on the sleeve lining have fallen off. The sizing isn’t great either: with the lining the jacket is too tight and you can’t wear anything thicker underneath, but without the lining it’s too baggy. It’s the only product from this shop that I regret buying.

Size S fits perfectly for a person who is 176 cm tall and weighs 78 kg. The jacket with the lining fits well, doesn't restrict movement, and without the lining, it's looser, which is understandable. It's a good choice at this price, and an additional advantage is the cotton material, which is more comfortable than polyester.

The jacket is fine, but the sizes are larger than usual. A downside is that you can't hang it together with the lining – when you hang the jacket alone, the lining hangs loose from the sleeves. The hood is very thin.

Thanks to the lining, the jacket is very warm. I advise choosing a smaller size than usual, because otherwise you may look unfavourable, like a UOP employee from the late 90s. A downside is the large number of loose threads.

It's not the same as it used to be – I bought my first jacket a few years ago and then the quality matched the price, but now it's more like Chinese production. Plastic zips on the lining and an unfinished pocket. In terms of appearance, though, it looks great!
