Description
Some jackets are made for the city. Others are ready for wherever the day takes you.
Inspired by classic military fieldwear, this dark olive M-65 brings rugged utility into everyday American style.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
Room for Everything That Matters: Four generously sized flap cargo pockets give you practical storage for everyday essentials. Keep your phone, wallet, keys, and other small items organized without constantly reaching for a bag.
Ready for Changing Weather: The water-resistant cotton canvas offers an added layer of protection against light moisture and unpredictable conditions. Combined with the stand collar and storm-front construction, it makes a dependable choice for everyday outdoor wear.
Classic Military Style Without the Military Uniform: The dark olive color, shoulder epaulettes, and functional pocket arrangement deliver authentic field-jacket character. Its relaxed fit makes it just as natural with everyday denim as it is with outdoor-inspired outfits.
THE DETAILS THAT MATTER
The Fabric
Built from 100% water-resistant cotton canvas, this field jacket has a substantial 9oz construction that feels right at home in a practical everyday wardrobe. The dark olive finish gives the fabric a rugged, understated appearance, while its textured surface adds character without relying on unnecessary decoration. Designed for regular wear, the cotton canvas offers a balance of durability, comfort, and versatility for everyday adventures.
The Collar
The stand collar brings one of the most recognizable features of classic M-65 military outerwear into a modern everyday design. Wear it folded down for a relaxed appearance or fasten it higher when the weather turns cooler. Shoulder epaulettes add another traditional military detail, while the concealed front closure keeps the overall appearance clean. Together, these features give the jacket a distinctive fieldwear identity without making it look overly tactical.
The Pockets
Storage is where this jacket really earns its place. Four large flap cargo pockets provide generous space for everyday essentials, with two positioned across the chest and two lower down for convenient access. Their button-secured flaps add practical character while keeping the front balanced and functional. Whether you're heading out for the weekend, traveling, or spending time outdoors, the pocket arrangement gives you useful storage without needing to carry an extra bag.
The Fit
Designed with a relaxed fit, this M-65 field jacket gives you room to move and layer comfortably. Its slightly structured body follows the traditional military field-jacket silhouette without feeling overly fitted. An adjustable internal waist drawcord lets you customize the shape, creating a more defined profile when desired or maintaining a loose, easy fit for casual wear. It works particularly well over T-shirts, sweatshirts, and lightweight sweaters.
The Finish
Every detail contributes to the jacket's functional, heritage-inspired appearance. The concealed zipper and snap storm placket create a clean front while adding another layer of closure. Buttoned shoulder epaulettes, adjustable cuffs, and carefully positioned seams complete the military-inspired construction. The dark olive color keeps the design versatile, while the matching canvas details ensure the jacket looks cohesive rather than overly decorative. It's a straightforward utility piece with lasting everyday appeal.
HOW TO STYLE IT
1. The Classic Military-Inspired Look: Pair the olive field jacket with a black or charcoal crewneck T-shirt, dark blue straight-leg jeans, and brown leather boots. Keep the jacket slightly open for a relaxed appearance. This combination delivers an authentic rugged look without trying too hard.
2. The Everyday Casual Look: Wear it over a white or cream T-shirt with light-wash denim and neutral sneakers. The contrast between the dark olive canvas and lighter basics creates an easy everyday outfit for casual outings, shopping, and weekend plans.
3. The Cold-Weather Layering Look: Layer the jacket over a grey sweatshirt or lightweight knit sweater. Add black or dark brown chinos and sturdy boots. The relaxed fit gives you room for additional layers, making this combination particularly useful during fall and cooler days.
