Brandit M65 Classic Jacket - Black
All-season insulated jacket in Black, modeled after the iconic M-65 design. It includes a hood stowed away in the collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two at the waist), and traditional shoulder straps.
This jacket is an accurate replica of the M65 military style utilized by the US Army since the Vietnam War. This legendary design merges functionality, comfort, and durability, making it widely popular across the globe. It often appears in pop culture – worn by Sylvester Stallone in "Rambo", Robert De Niro in "Taxi Driver", and Bronisław Cieślak in "07 Come In".
strong construction, warm lining
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 is equipped with four practical snap-button pockets:
- including two pockets on the chest
- and two pockets located at waist level
Adjustable cuffs, waist drawstrings, shoulder straps
Velcro-adjustable cuffs and waist drawstrings enhance the fit and provide better protection against the cold. Shoulder straps accentuate the military style.
Zipper covered by a storm flap
The snap-button storm flap conceals the main zipper, offering added protection against wind and cold. This flap also helps prevent the zipper from becoming jammed by dirt, moisture, or snow.

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

I am satisfied with the product. I chose the size carefully and it fits me perfectly. The garment is good for cold weather, for now I’m wearing it without the lining. The pockets are functional, with snaps, a sturdy zipper, and snaps on top. The only thing that kind of bothered me is the sleeve extension; when it’s folded and fastened inside with Velcro, it makes it a bit tricky to get your hand out of the sleeve or to look at your watch. I absolutely love the 'dark camo' color. The price is quite 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 the price is really low, so the value for money is excellent. Its classic cut 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 deserves attention, especially at the current promotional price. It's not suitable for very cold weather, but it's comfortable, has large pockets, and a versatile cut. I recommend it to anyone who is undecided – it's really worth buying.
-
Truly an iconic design – this collar is very masculine. It looks really cool if your build is not skinny. On the downside, the pocket placement is morally outdated. For fighters in the 1960s, this might have been fine, but now 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 in this jacket. The hood is basically nominal. The lining is quite short: both in the neck area and at the waist.

Height 187. Weight 110 kg. I ordered XXXL. It turned out to be very big. At the NP post office, I was told that I could only look at it, not try it on. There's only 1-2 cm difference between XXL and XXXL in the size chart. Now I'm hesitating on which size to choose. Maybe XL? 😊 I call the seller's phone - an answering machine replies, ugh! I arranged a return, now I'm waiting. The quality is not bad. Some threads stick out, but that's easy to fix. The seams are double, strong, and even. The fabric feels soft to the touch. You can't feel the synthetics. The collar is large. Overall, I liked the quality. But choosing the right size is a problem. The sizing chart is not accurate, doesn't match the real sizes. The price is good. Delivery is fast and free for orders from 2999 UAH. I'm waiting for the refund and maybe I’ll place another order.

I don't know about others, but this jacket is very comfortable for me. I use it for everyday needs (defending the country). Dirt is easy to clean, 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 worked well in temperatures from +6 to -7 degrees Celsius (without the lining), and it was enough to wear a fleece or a regular shirt underneath to feel very warm.

I want to share my review to help potential buyers choose the right size. I am 177 cm tall and weigh 118 kg, I chose XXXL, it fits perfectly. The jacket is awesome, I definitely recommend it.
-
The quality of workmanship falls short compared to American contract versions, but at this price, it’s hard to expect more. With the minor exceptions of the material used and the zipper being sewn on the opposite side, it’s a fairly faithful replica of the original. There are some inaccuracies in the description: the tag indicates 100% polyester, and the lining—just like the original—is fastened with buttons, not a zipper.
-
The jacket is very well made. It has a very warm, easily detachable lining. It worked well at temperatures from +6 to -7 degrees Celsius (without the extra liner) – just a sweatshirt or shirt underneath was enough to keep me really warm. Deserved 5 stars.
