Military-inspired Men’s Field Jackets & Coats
Rich with heritage and packed with functionality, men’s field jackets are an essential part of any outerwear wardrobe. Developed in 1965 for the US Army, the M65 Field Jacket would cross over into fashion in the 70s & 80s and make appearances in movies such as Terminator, Rocky and Taxi Driver.
The original windproof, showerproof Men's M-65 field jacket had several defining features: Four large exterior pockets for ammunition and gear, a hidden hood, adjustable cuffs, and snap closures. Today, Alpha Industries continues to produce the classic M-65 field jacket plus other field jackets and men’s outerwear inspired by the M-65, updated to suit different styles and weather conditions.
Style Tips: How to Wear Men’s Field Jackets
Field jackets are versatile and functional enough to wear in all seasons and for all occasions—from work to weekends, in the city and on outdoor adventures. Their pockets are perfect for carrying your keys, phone, and wallet, and their clean silhouette is ideal for layering over a vest, hoodie, or liner jacket for extra warmth.
If you like a roomier fit—or plan to wear your field jacket over thick layers—Alpha Industries’ Heritage M-65 Field Jacket stays true to the original M-65’s oversized military specifications.
