The US Army M65 Field Jacket, offered here in size Medium Regular, is a standard-issue outerwear garment introduced by the United States military in 1965. Designed for versatility and durability, the M65 jacket is constructed from a water- and wind-resistant cotton blend sateen outer shell with a concealed front zipper and snap fastenings. The jacket features four large front pockets secured with snap closures, an integrated hood that packs into the collar, and Velcro-adjustable cuffs. Drawstrings at the waist and hem allow for a customizable fit. The M65 was widely issued during the Vietnam War and continued as a staple of military field wear through the late 20th century. Its practical design was intended to protect soldiers across a range of climates and operational conditions. This jacket is a representative example of Cold War-era military clothing and remains notable for its influence on both military and civilian outerwear.
