Surplus Raw VintageMen's Suit Jacket

I've just received this Jacket this morning and am very pleased with it, The quality feels to be excellent. The sleeves are a bit long, It's worth pointing out though that the sleeves do have hand shield extensions which make the sleeves appear even longer and there are plenty of velcro adjusters on them to get a good fit around the cuff. With the Winter/cold weather insert the jacket feels incredibly comfortable and definitely will keep you warm, the quilted jacket insert attaches to the outer coat via buttons so is easy to detach and attach, it only takes a minute or so to reattach the liner to the main jacket.I was a little unsure if the size I ordered would be big enough as I am a little err.. Large round the middle and usually have to order Jackets sized XXL but the advice given to order a size smaller than you normally would was spot on, even with the Quilted Insert attached this XL size jacket fits me well and the larger size would have been too big.All in all a very good quality jacket that I am sure I will get plenty of usage out of.Edit on 07/08/2013well I have had this jacket now for just about 2 years, and wear it pretty much daily except in the middle of summer, I've wandered over hill and dale and through dense woodland among other places wearing this jacket both with and without the quilted liner, and I have yet to find issue with the quality of this product. Two years almost daily usage and no buttons have come loose or dropped off, nor has any of the velcro on the sleeves or the collar become frayed or any stitching come lose either. There have been no tares or holes developed in pockets, or on sleeves when caught on brambles or broken branches. from my perspective two years after purchase I have no issues with the quality of the product. I'm still very pleased with this purchase and still happy to recommend it to others.

Jacket looks and has a very tailored fit. Sizing is correct, even with separate quilted long sleeved section.Can be worn without the quilted section and fit still looks good.Have worn in very windy weather and the jacket maintains the warmth.Would recommend as a leisure or casual jacket.Pleased with purchase.

A well made, warm. and nice fitting jacket. Worth every penny. The advice to go one size down from normal is correct, certainly for the slimmer person. Might be a bit baggy otherwise.

Nothing wrong with the actual jacket, except the sizing is completely wrong. I ordered a 5XL which was stated to be 54-56 inch chest. When I took the jacket from the packaging I could see straight away it was going to be too small. I could just about get my shoulders into the jacket after taking out the inner lining. Just a few days before receiving this jacket I received a green camo m65 jacket from a different supplier and the same chest measurements came in a 4XL which is loose and comfortable on me which I have now. I like these jackets I have 5 and I have owned my oldest one for over 25 years. The jacket that did not fit, I would be surprised if it was over a 50 inch chest size max. I cannot fault the supplier who paid for the return posting and refunded me back promptly. Just the actual sizing was wrong.

This jacket is comfortable and looks good when worn but work needs to be done on the finishing as there were loose threads everywhere and I spent 15 minutes cutting off the loose ends. The size definitely needs to be one less than stated, even though I did this I still had to wash and tumble dry it to get it to fit. The inner is easily removed and I will probably never wear it as the jacket is warm enough without the inner. The hood is the worse part as it looks unfinished or added as an afterthought while the lining at the bottom of the jacket could do with sewing in place as it rides up every time I put the jacket on. Saying all this I would still buy this jacket.

Bought this jacket as I'd been looking at the M65 for a while and wanted the olive green. I wear this jacket all the time and I am very please with it however a couple of the studs came of so I sent an email and they asked if I wanted a replacement or 50% refund, I went for the refund. So for about £25 this jacket is fantastic- water-proof, very warm and looks great even at £50 its a steal and I really didn't think the quality would be as good as it is but for size I'm am 6ft 3 and 16 plus stone with 46-47 chest and the large fits just great and with the liner out bags of room. So in summery great jacket but you get what you pay for.

Well made and very warm with liner and a lot cooler with out. a good fit slightly larger than expected but thats better than too small.Mainly used for walking dog on rainy days.

Nice colour, light and warm. There is a hole in lower left pocket
