Email us about this product

Developed for the Korean War, the M1951 field coat was made from OG-107 water repellent and wind resistant sateen and had a zip front closure and button cuffs. It had both waist and hem drawstrings and in cold weather could be fitted with a detachable liner. A hood could be buttoned to the coat’s epaulets to provide protection against the elements for both head and face. Though they were rarely needed in Vietnam, field coats were worn in the Central Highlands where it became rather cold at night.

NOS M-65 woodland camo

Arrived exactly as described. Couldn’t be happier!!! 6 out of 5 stars!!!

Very happy

I purchased a piece of American history and now I wear it with pride. The M65 is even nicer than I expected. The order arrived on time in Italy. Now I'm thinking about the M51 and some shirts. Watch out for sizes! For example, American Large in Europe is a Medium. Greetings from Bari, Italy.
