This is the M-65 Field Jacket, a masterpiece that epitomizes U.S. military field jackets. Since its official adoption in 1965, it served as the U.S. military’s primary combat uniform for many years—from the Vietnam War through the Cold War—and its refined design remains highly popular today as the standard in military wear.

The size is SMALL-REGULAR, which is a good fit.

This is the 3rd Model from the 1975 contract. It comes from a relatively early production lot within the 3rd Model series and represents a piece from the era when the M-65 had matured into its final, perfected form.It features all the details that symbolize the M-65, including a hood-concealing collar, four functional large pockets, and highly durable nylon-cotton satin fabric.

This particular jacket features a vintage-style brass zipper. It is a model from before the transition to plastic zippers in later years, and the brass zipper offers a charming detail that allows you to enjoy its distinctive heft and the patina that comes with age.

While there are some signs of wear, fading is minimal and the fabric is in good condition. It retains the practical vibe typical of military clothing, yet is in a condition that allows you to wear it for many years to come and enjoy developing your own unique patina.

Although it does not come with a liner, this jacket allows you to enjoy the M-65’s signature lightweight feel. By adding your own liner, you can wear it through the winter, while on its own, it’s versatile enough for a wide range of seasons, particularly spring and fall.

Featuring a brass zipper—a characteristic of the early 3rd Model from the 1975 contract—this is a highly recommended piece that fully captures the charm of a vintage M-65. Please add this masterpiece of U.S. military field jackets, which combines practicality and historical value, to your collection.
