This jacket is fantastic! I got the size just right, and its appearance made a huge impression on me. It's solidly made, has a great color, and an attractive price. I definitely recommend it!
A year-round military jacket based on the popular M65 model used by the US military since the Vietnam War. The M65 jacket has been used many times in movies and TV series, and has been worn by such actors as Sylvester Stallone in Rambo, Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver or Bronisław Cieślak in 07 Come In.
It is made of a durable polyester/cotton blend. The inner side is equipped with warm liner made and filled with synthetic fabric. Thanks to the liner jacket is suitable for wearing in all seasons.
The M65 is fastened with a zipper, which can be further covered with a strip fastened with snaps, which provides better temperature maintenance and protects against wind penetration. The strip also prevents the zipper from getting blocked.
The jacket is equipped with a concealed hood in the stand-up collar, 4 pockets (two each on the chest and waist) and shoulder paddles. Additional protection against the cold is provided by Velcro adjustable cuffs and welts at the waist and at the bottom of the jacket.

This is a great jacket both for hiking in the mountains and for everyday wear. Thanks to the interchangeable insulation, it also worked well during colder days. I am very satisfied because the jacket effectively protects against wind and rain. It fits well and has a lot of practical pockets, which is a big advantage. Definitely worth buying – the price is very favorable.

Very good quality for the price. The jacket is comfortable and very warm – with a light frost, just a T-shirt was enough and I was still warm. I’m not a big fan of the velcro collar, but if you wear a scarf, for example, you don’t have to fasten it.

The jacket is worth its price and of good quality – the dimensions given in the table are accurate, but I have to add that the sleeves are quite long. It's worth impregnating the material. The lining keeps me warm enough, but everyone should assess this individually.

The jacket looks great, is well made, and feels durable. Although this is the basic version with a light lining, it still provides plenty of warmth – perfectly sufficient for our winters. I agree with others that the material attracts dirt easily, and it is more visible on the black color. The material is durable but slightly rough, which might be the reason. The sleeves are exceptionally long, even when the cuffs are rolled up, so people with larger builds may be surprised when choosing their standard size. It's worth checking the size in a stationary store. I definitely recommend the jacket, but pay attention to the above aspects. The store's service is commendable – everything went extremely quickly.

The jacket is aesthetic and carefully made, and the sizes match the data in the table. The lining warms well, and the jacket protects well against wind and rain. The only downside is that all dirt is very visible on it.

For this price, it's a pretty good jacket. Quality-wise, it is comparable to Brandit, nicely made. A big advantage is the detachable lining. However, in subzero temperatures, it might be a bit too thin.

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 highlight their style. From a practical standpoint, I give it the highest rating!
