First Issued To Soldiers In The United States Armed Forces In 1965, The M-65 Is The Definitive Field Jacket, A Pop Culture Icon And Perhaps One Of The Most Significant Garments In Menswear Design History. It Evolved From The M-1943 Field Coat Via The M-1951 And Is A Seminal Piece That Utilized Tailoring Techniques And Pre-Eminent Functional Application To Deliver An Extremely Flattering But Entirely Utilitarian Garment.
The M-65 Stands Alone In Its Versatility, Through Its Proportions And The Execution Of Details Such As The Snap-Flat Cargo Pockets, Concealed Hood, And Adjustable Drawstring At The Waist And Bottom, The M-65 Can Be Combined And Layered By The Wearer To Elevate An Outfit In Nearly Any Environment Or Setting.
The M-65 Has Been The Source Of Countless Imitations, This Model, Developed By The Real Mccoy&Rsquo;S Using Entirely Bespoke Materials Faithfully Reproduces The Detailed Processes Stipulated In The Mil Specifications, Such As The Aluminium Zips And Other Details, Sewing Techniques And Prescribed Colors. The Outer Shell Is Executed In 100% Cotton Sateen, An Up-Spec From The Cotton Blend Used In Military Production To Aid The Ageing Process.
This Version Of The M-65 Was The First To Be Released In 1965 And Remained In Production For Only One Year, Making It Especially Sought After. It Can Be Distinguished From Later Versions By The Absence Of Epaulettes And Its Lighter, Less Saturated Olive Drab Outer Shell While Additional Minor Adjustments Were Made To The Pattern And Materials.
The Four, Deep Front Pockets Can Be Closed With A Heavy-Duty Press Stud And The Same Can Be Found Along The Jacket Opening, Above The Concealed, Sewn-In Zipper Cover And Bespoke Mccoy Hardware.
