A solid jacket. First I ordered an L, because I thought it would fit, being 180 and 70kg, but it was too big! However, I returned it and changed it for an M and the whole process was very quick and smooth, very professional, for which I am grateful. The M size is ok, though I usually prefer a bit slimmer jackets. M still feels a tiny bit roomy so I keep wondering if S would be a tiny bit better... But it could also be a bit too small. So I can't count this as negative. Other than that, as said the jacket is ok, decent pockets and zipper, ok lining. A small negative is the hood which feels a bit impractical/cheaply made. Just doesn't fit really well. And the material can feel a bit stiff, which I guess is a limitation of polycotton. And personally, blue color is also more on a "bright" side like the one seen on the model pictures, less "dull" blue like on the first picture, which I would prefer. But I hope it will wash out with time.
Brandit M65 Classic Jacket with Detachable Liner - Dark Camo
Warm year-round jacket in Dark Camo camouflage inspired by the iconic M-65 model. Features a detachable liner, hood hidden in the collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two at the waist), and epaulets on the shoulders.
The jacket closely replicates the M65 fit, used by the U.S. military since the Vietnam conflict. The M65 is a true legend - practical, comfortable, spacious, solid. It has many supporters worldwide. Interestingly, it often appeared in movies and TV series, worn by characters created by actors like Sylvester Stallone in "Rambo," Robert De Niro in "Taxi Driver," and Bronisław Cieślak in "07 zgłoś się."
solid construction, detachable liner
Outer layer is made from a fabric combining durable polyester (80%) and breathable cotton (20%). Inside the jacket, there's a thin polyester lining, enhancing wearing comfort. The set also includes a detachable liner with synthetic fabric filling offering excellent thermal insulation properties, effectively protecting against cold. For comfort, the liner is further held in place by buttons sewn at the neck and sleeves. This allows the jacket to be worn all year round.
4 spacious pockets
Model features four practical pockets closed with snaps:
- two at chest level
- two around the hips
adjustable cuffs, drawstrings at the waist, epaulets on shoulders
Velcro-adjustable cuffs and drawstrings at the waist protect against the cold and allow fitting to the silhouette. Epaulets on the shoulders give the jacket a distinctive character.
Zipper covered with a strip
The M65 model closes with a zipper, which can be additionally covered by a strip fastened with snaps, aiding in maintaining temperature under the jacket and protecting against wind penetrating the zipper. The strip also prevents the zipper from jamming due to dirt accumulation, dust, and sand, as well as water freezing or snow caking on the zipper.

Great purchase! Very satisfied with the jacket — the quality is excellent, and everything fit perfectly. I especially want to thank the staff for their professional advice. The store's service pleasantly surprised me: from ordering to receiving, everything was fast and clearly organized. I recommend it!

I’m 5’8 of average build and brought the Medium, it’s a perfect fit. Very high quality tough material, not to heavy and bulky, very stylish too. I originally got this for bush craft activities but it’s too good for that! Love it.

I’m 5’8, 13 stone and got Medium, the fit is absolutely perfect! For what I paid the quality is astonishing! Service and postage was second to none from this great company. I wouldn’t buy from anywhere else!
-
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.
