Buzz Rickson's x William Gibson U.S. Army M-65 3rd Model Jacket - Black

1 / 6

Field Notes

The William Gibson collection continues with perhaps the most iconic military jacket of them all, the M-65. Now in limited edition black, this cotton and nylon blend jacket is based around the ‘3rd model’ M-65, which used this fabric for its quick drying abilities. This icon of the Viet Nam war also features a poly/cotton blend lining with a set of mil spec Urea buttons which can be used to fasten in a M-65 liner jacket for extra warmth.

A waist and hem drawstring can be used to easily cinch in the shape, while convenience comes in the form of four large front pockets mil spec snap fasteners. A beautiful contrast brass zipper on the collar hides an easily accessible hood to protect from the elements, and a velcro throat tab is present to secure the collar in cold weather. What more could we possibly ask for from this brand?!
