Military Styled Jackets from A&B

Attennnnn-Tiooon!!!

For over 40 years our armed services have utilized The M65 Field Jacket. It was first introduced to our soldiers during the Vietnam and Korean Wars. Now its continued its work in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. It origionally was produced only in olive green and made of a wind/water resistant cotton/nylon blend fabric. It had four pockets, two at chest level and two more at arms length, all with flaps. It also had a hood which could be tucked into the collar and zipped shut when not in use. It contained a heavy metal front zipper with a cover that snapped shut. The wrists had hook and eye closures, and a drawsting waist and hem. The M65 Field jacket was made with a well-defined purpose and meets that. For years fashion has redesigned this purposeful jacket into something functional and fashionable for everyday wear.
