This is the best jacket I’ve ever owned! I got the liner for it and wore it all winter and never got cold in single digit weather. – Travis Pope
I’ve had one for about 10 years now, still in very good shape, but I have decided to order a new one anyway. Same size, color and model… Why mess with perfection?

Every Vietnam Veteran I know brought his field jacket home and wore it until it literally fell off of his body! I know I did. I have been looking for another for quite a while, and this is it!! This is the best mid-weather jacket ever made, IMHO. While you can easily find the button-in liner which converts the M65 to a cold weather parka, I never used mine and don’t know whatever happened to it (the liner). Just buy the coat, and see what all of us already know: Uncle Sam doesn’t screw EVERYTHING up (just most things)! – James T. Gibson III “Rev. Jim”
