I've had my M65 for almost 3 decades and ive never found anything better. It really is something you buy for a lifetime. Just make sure you dont get the fancy watered down crap from companies that try to make it a fashion item.

I bought for £18 this week a NOS SuperDry M65 and aside from it being a bit on the small side for fitment, its actually pretty damned good for what it is. Best combat jacket imho is the British Army 68 issue smock, super thick material, lined and has more pockets than anything else I know of and even has a "sack warmer" flap that you button up under the crutch to give your jewels some warmth and protection from hostile environments. My main "go to" though is a genny MA1 Alpha Industries black flight jacket, had my current one 20 years and the one before that is my riding jacket covered in patches and bought that in the 90's, you won't go wrong with a MA1.

Thanks for the review. The buzz rickson actually fits you better in my eyes. A few corrections though, both those jackets are made from Nyco (50/50 cotton nylon blend) not 100 % cotton. Buzz rickson recreated the same specs as the original military issued M65 in materials, but they modernized the fit. Real Mccoys uses "better" materials than the original m65 and also changed the cut for a more contemporary fit. The original M65 was cut generously as they were designed to be an outer shell. The reason the Real mccoys is touted as the "best" is because they have amazing workmanship and quality materials, but they aren't the most historically accurate in terms of fit.

I live in the UK and have just bought a Brandit M65. I got a small and it's a perfect fit for me. I'm tall and slim - 6" and 10.5 stone. The liner will rarely be used as it just doesn't get cold enough over here. What would I change ? I'd prefer a fleece / sherpa lining without sleeves. An inside zipped pocket would be nice and I might well remove the hood as it just makes the collar feel too bulky. Overall though, I'd say it's a good, well made jacket and one to consider.

Anyways, keep up the awesome content.

What's the reference number on your Buzz Rickson's M-65? I have one but the zipper is absolutely fine (it's aluminum). I have the so-called "2nd model"… Looks just like yours. The weird thing with this particular one is that the sizing is US whereas their "3rd model" is definitely JP. That's why you had to make it shrink. Just my 2 cents. Anyway nice videos.
