I rate the jacket positively – it has large pockets and practical Velcro on the sleeves and collar. It comes with a warm liner you can remove on warmer days, turning the jacket into a light, spring piece. Personally, I would prefer a darker shade of green, but that's just a matter of taste.
Brandit M65 Standard RipStop Jacket - Black
Jacket crafted with inspiration from the legendary M65 military field jacket, renowned globally for its exceptional functionality and durability. Suitable for every season, its sturdy design and premium materials ensure excellent performance even during extensive use in diverse weather conditions.
The M65 jacket is a true style emblem with a storied history: featured in numerous films and TV series, it has been worn by characters such as Sylvester Stallone in "Rambo", Robert De Niro in "Taxi Driver", and Bronislaw Cieslak in "07 Come In".
Durable Rip-stop fabric, insulating liner
The jacket is crafted from a blend of 80% polyester and 20% cotton, guaranteeing both durability and moisture resistance. With a Rip-Stop weave, the fabric is further strengthened to withstand abrasion and damage, even with extensive use in tough conditions.
Within the jacket, there is a thin lining and a zipper designed for attaching the included underliner. The liner is composed of soft material and contains synthetic insulation. It's secured with buttons at the neck and sleeves, preventing movement and enhancing comfort and freedom of movement.
4 functional pockets
The M65 features two generous chest pockets and two on the waist, perfect for holding vital items like a phone, wallet, gloves, or a cap.
Retractable hood, military-style shoulder marks
The jacket features a retractable hood within a high stand-up collar, enabling adjustments for changing weather conditions. Epaulets on the shoulders lend an authentic military style.
Windproof strip for protection against the cold
The primary closure features a durable zipper, covered by a windproof strip secured with snaps. This strip enhances thermal insulation and shields the zipper from contaminants like dust and dirt.
Adjustable cuffs and drawstring waist
Velcro-adjustable cuffs and a drawstring waist ensure the jacket fits the body snugly, offering enhanced protection against cold and wind, thus boosting comfort across various conditions.

This is my first Brandit M65 Standard jacket. I chose black because I couldn't find olive in size XL and, additionally, there was a promotion. The jacket is well made, and the Rip-Stop material is really great. The pockets are very spacious. I tested it in a 30-minute rain and it did not soak through, although of course in a longer rain it might start to get damp. I am 185 cm tall, 98 cm waist, with a normal body build—XL is perfect for me, fits well, is neither too loose nor too tight. With the lining, the jacket is looser; I also had a fleece underneath. Without the lining, it's even more relaxed. The jacket holds warmth well and protects against the wind. I recommend this model to everyone who likes military style.

I am 175 cm tall and have a 104 cm chest – I chose size M. There could be a bit more room under the armpits. The sleeves fit my long arms perfectly. The jacket is very well made for a city jacket, and the Rip-Stop material works great. The hood can be rolled into the collar, which sets it apart from other M65 jackets where the hood usually falls on the back. The external pockets have snaps. Overall, a very successful purchase, definitely better quality than SURPLUS. However, it's important to remember that this is not a rain jacket.

I can wholeheartedly recommend both the jacket itself, which doesn't need extra advertising, and the customer service at Militaria – both in-store and online. I placed my order on Tuesday evening and already received an SMS about delivery to the parcel locker on Wednesday morning. Really fast fulfillment!

I have already tried various M65 jackets and thought this model wasn't for my figure, but encouraged by the review about the thinner lining, I decided to give it another try – and it was a great choice. The jacket fits perfectly, doesn't make me look bulky, provides warmth, and thanks to rip-stop, feels extremely durable. It's a bit less comfortable for driving, but ideal for walks around the neighborhood. Additionally, the price is very favorable. I am 180 cm tall and weigh 96 kg; I wear size L.

Very good, timeless jacket. Unfortunately, because of my 'tactical' belly, it fits quite snug in the waist. It really does have broad shoulders, so a larger size would be too baggy for me. If you have a regular build or only a slight belly, you will surely be satisfied.

This is already my second M65 jacket, I had the previous one in black. Very well made, it's comfortable, warm, and looks good. Everything matches the description and sizing.

This is my second M65 jacket, but the first one made from RIP-STOP material. I previously had pants made from this material, and now the jacket is also excellent. The fabric is resistant to dirt, tears, and light rain. The jacket is very comfortable and provides warmth with the liner (in autumn, you can also wear a fleece underneath). It has a classic cut and true-to-size fit, lots of practical pockets, and a high, warm collar with a hood inside. Due to the classic look, durable material, and affordable price, I definitely recommend it.

The Brandit M65 year-round jacket is an exceptional product that will work great even for very demanding people. The sizes match the chart, which makes it easy to fit the jacket to your figure, significantly affecting wearing comfort. The outer layer of cotton and polyester with an additional Rip-Stop fiber ensures durability and resistance to moisture, and the lining allows for year-round use. Four spacious pockets are very practical and hold all the necessary items. Adjustable cuffs and waist drawstrings effectively protect against cold, and the hidden hood is useful during changing weather. The jacket is comfortable and looks good, and details such as epaulettes and a concealed zipper highlight its style. I highly recommend it!

The product is well made and the materials are durable. Brandit has not let me down once again. This time I chose a different color than usual—not black or green. The price is also very competitive.

Great jacket, everything matches the description and the size chart. Size M fits perfectly at 180 cm tall and 84 kg weight. Very nice look without flashy prints. Highly recommended!

The quality of workmanship and the materials used are really at a high level. This is a lighter and less expensive version of this model. Unfortunately, I didn't like it in this color, although for someone else it might be suitable. In person, the shade is a bit darker than in the photo.

The jacket presents very high quality, the material is much better than in the classic or giant models because it doesn't catch dust or lint. The lining is thinner, but I still think it surpasses the quality of the sheepskins from other models. I miss side pockets for hands and an inner pocket for a phone. It would be great if the pockets had zippers instead of snaps, although these are small details and can be modified, especially since zippers are also not present in other models. The black color is nice, with a lighter shade than deep black. The biggest challenge is choosing the right size—if you have a typical figure, you shouldn't choose a smaller size. I usually wear XL, but here, L fit perfectly. The jacket is suitable for many seasons and works best at temperatures from 12 to -10 degrees.

Classic military style at an affordable price. A good option if you want to see if this type of cut suits you. The jacket is well made, and an additional benefit is the removable liner.
