Review for model:

Well-made and warm jacket, I haven't tested it yet without the lining but it handles strong frosts well. Definitely a plus are the 4 pockets. So far, I am satisfied.

Review for model:

I rate the quality-to-price ratio positively, but I decided to return the product and order the same M65 model from Helikon. With a height of 180 cm, weight of 65 kg, and long arms, size M was perfect for me. I give it 4 stars because the snaps seemed too delicate and opened too easily, and the black color looked more like gray, which was a downside for me. I hope Helikon will provide better quality for this price.

Review for model:

I chose size M. I am 173 cm tall and weigh 86 kg. The jacket is a bit too long for me and a little tight in the chest. With the lining, it's quite snug, but without it, it fits well. Overall, the quality and appearance are great.

The jacket is well made, I like it a lot. I bought it recently and haven't used it yet, but I assume it will provide comfort at temperatures down to -10 degrees. I am 190 cm tall and weigh 115 kg – I chose size 4XL, but 3XL would have been enough. Thank you to the store for the product and I regret finding it so late.

I rate the jacket positively. It has quite roomy pockets, and the velcro on the sleeves and collar is very practical. A warm liner is included, and after taking it out, we have a light spring jacket. It could be in a slightly darker shade of green, but that's a personal preference.

This is my first Brandit M65 Standard jacket. I bought the black one because the olive color wasn't available in XL size. I got it on promotion. The jacket is very well made. The Rip-Stop type material is excellent. The four pockets are roomy. The jacket was tested in moderate rain for 30 minutes and did not soak through. Of course, over a longer period it may start to absorb water. I'm 185 cm tall, 98 cm waist, average build. Size XL is perfect, neither too wide nor too tight. With the liner, the jacket is loose and I wore a fleece under it. Without the liner, it's even looser. The jacket retains heat and blocks the wind. I recommend it to anyone who likes this style (military).

Height 175cm, chest 104cm - size M. A bit tight under the arms. The sleeves are just right for my long arms. Very nicely made city jacket, the Rip-Stop really does the job. Unlike most M65s, the hood can be rolled into the collar, not just left hanging down the back. Four external pockets with snaps. Overall, great. Definitely better workmanship than SURPLUS. And remember, this is not a rain jacket...

I honestly recommend both the jacket itself (I think it needs no advertising), as well as the customer service from the Militaria team, whether in the store or online. I placed the order on Tuesday around 6 p.m. and the next day at about 10 a.m. I received an SMS with information about delivery to the parcel locker. Top class :)

I have tried on several M65 jackets and thought this model wasn't for my body shape. But, driven by the opinion that this particular model has a thinner liner, I gave the M65 one more chance and it turned out to be a great decision. I don't look puffed up like a snowman or a Russian soldier in the trenches at Stalingrad—the jacket fits perfectly, is warm, and thanks to the rip-stop material, seems impossible to destroy. Not the most comfortable for driving, but great for walking around the neighborhood, etc. Plus, the price is ridiculous. For 180cm and 96kg, size L.

Very nice jacket. Timeless. Unfortunately, I have a tactical belly and it's fairly tight around the stomach. It's actually broad in the shoulders, and a bigger size might be too wide for me. But if you have a normal body build or a small belly, you'll definitely be satisfied.

This is already my second M65 jacket, the previous one was black. Great workmanship, comfortable, warm, looks great. Everything as described, sizing is OK.

My second M65 jacket, but the first made from RIP-STOP material. Previously, I only had pants made of this material, but the jacket also looks great. This type of material is resistant to dirt, tears, and light rain. The jacket is very comfortable and with the liner is warm (for autumn, you could optionally wear a fleece underneath). The jacket's design is classic, sizing matches. It has many multifunctional pockets and a high, warm collar that protects against the cold (with a hood inside). The jacket is worth recommending for its classic look, (durable) material, and the price, which for such a jacket is affordable. I recommend it.

The year-round M65 jacket from Brandit is an exceptional product that will certainly meet the expectations of even the most demanding users. The sizing matches the chart, making it easy to fit the jacket to your figure, which additionally emphasizes wearing comfort. The outer material, a blend of cotton and polyester enriched with Rip-Stop fibers, guarantees durability and protection against moisture, and the additional lining allows the jacket to be worn all year round. Four spacious pockets ensure practicality, allowing you to conveniently carry essential items. Adjustable cuffs and waist drawstrings effectively protect against the cold, and the hidden hood is a great solution for unpredictable weather. The jacket is very comfortable, looks great, and its details, such as the epaulets or the flap covering the zipper, add character. I recommend it!

Good quality workmanship and solid materials. Once again, Brandit has not let me down :) This time, a different color than black or green ;) The decent price does the job.

Very nice jacket, everything matches the description and the sizing chart. Size M fits perfectly for a height of 180cm and weight of 84kg. Great look without flashy logos. I recommend it!!!!
