During Vietnam, the M-65 field jacket was issued to soldiers. Now, civilians can wear this tough infantry classic too -- whether for fashion, function or to preserve memories of military service. This vintage field coat features a concealed hood, draw-cords for the waist, hood and hems to preserve warmth and dryness. The hunting coat’s brass zipper and snapping fasteners look fantastic while keeping out the elements. The army jacket’s bi-swing back ensures unrestrained movement. This jacket is a loose fit so we recommend purchasing one size smaller than what you usually buy. Alpha Industries is a 55-year-old heritage military company who has supplied the US government with durable outerwear for the armed forces. Now you can own an authentic field coat made by experienced suppliers to the US military. Each field coat is uniquely designed and inspired by the original M-65 from Alpha Industries history. We invite you to be a part of this history today!
