Very good jacket – lightweight, made of cotton and natural materials. The lining is so warm that the jacket almost feels like a winter fur coat. An interesting feature is that you can wear the lining separately. It's worth matching the size to your measurements, rather than relying on standard sizing – I wear XL, but M is perfect.
A versatile jacket inspired by the renowned M65 design employed by the US Army during the Vietnam War. The exterior is crafted entirely from durable, high-quality cotton that has been factory aged, imparting a distinct vintage style.
The M65 is a true icon—practical, comfortable, spacious, and robust. It frequently appears in movies and TV series, worn by characters played by actors such as Sylvester Stallone in Rambo, Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver, and Bronislaw Cieslak in 07 Come In.
The warm liner, made from nylon filled with polyester fibers, features a zipper for quick and easy attachment to the cotton-nylon interior. Thanks to this liner, the jacket can be worn throughout the year.
The jacket includes a concealed hood within the stand-up collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two at the waist), and shoulder epaulets. Additional cold protection comes from Velcro adjustable cuffs and drawstrings at the waist and jacket bottom.
The model closes with a zipper, which can be further covered with a snap-fastened flap to enhance insulation and prevent wind infiltration. This flap also ensures the zipper remains unobstructed.

The jacket is not worth its price. Poor quality – threads are sticking out everywhere, and the buttons from the sleeve lining fell off. The sizing is not the best either: with the lining, the jacket is too tight and you can't wear anything thicker underneath, but without the lining it's too loose. This is the only product in this store that I regret spending money on.

Size S fits perfectly for a person who is 176 cm tall and weighs 78 kg. The jacket with the lining fits well and does not 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. The downside is that you cannot hang it together with the lining – if you hang just the jacket, the lining freely dangles from the sleeves. The hood is very thin.

Thanks to the lining, the jacket is very warm. I recommend choosing a smaller size than usual, otherwise you may look unflattering, like a late 90s UOP employee. 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 back then the quality matched the price, but now it seems more like Chinese production. The plastic zippers on the lining and an unfinished pocket. As for the appearance, it looks great!
