If you've ever walked out of a film and decided that from now on you're going to dress more like Jason Bourne, Tyler Durden, or Indiana Jones, the good news is you're not alone. The bad news is unless you have your own costume department, dressing like a film star is hard. So we've spent the last 2 years building a jacket that looks like you stole it off the back of Indiana Jones.

It's a rugged, super-lightweight cotton jacket based on the iconic M-65 field jacket - a US Army staple that saw action in Vietnam before making the leap to the civilian wardrobe in the 1970s. Its military heritage is reflected in a utilitarian design that features seven pockets including two huge bellows pockets on the lower back, heavy-duty metal hardware, and internally reinforced seams for lasting durability.

What truly sets it apart is its unique finish. Getting it to look like it's walked off a film set has involved months of garment dyeing, re-dyeing and stone-washing, so no two jackets will ever look the same. And its patina will only deepen and get richer as you wear it on your own adventures.

A field jacket for travelling the Earth

Few pieces of clothing have travelled the earth like the field jacket has. Designed as a lightweight, utilitarian solution for the battlefields of Europe and the Pacific during WWII, it evolved into the famous M-65 jacket in the jungles of Vietnam, before being reborn as a Hollywood icon on the backs of Pacino in Serpico, De Niro in Taxi Driver, and The Terminator.

Made with a custom dyeing process that makes each jacket look like it’s stepped off a film set, no two jackets are the same.

Engineered for comfort and utility

A great field jacket needs two things – comfort and utility. So we set out to create a jacket that retains the DNA of the original M-65, while looking and feeling like a jacket you’ll want to throw on every single day. Lightweight, soft and durable with a beautifully faded look, each one is assembled with high-spec metal components, seams that are reinforced with strong herringbone tape, and seven ultra-practical pockets designed for adventure. It’s what allows the jacket to blend in anywhere.

Equipped with seven utilitarian pockets

The original M-65 field jackets came equipped with four functional pockets for storage – two chest pockets and two hip pockets. We’ve kept this same construction, while adding an extra hidden zipped chest pocket and two huge back pockets for travelling.

The utilitarian design includes two huge bellows pockets, heavy-duty metal hardware, and reinforced seams for durability.

A hidden zipped pocket for treasure maps

The jacket is fitted with two angled upper chest pockets which close securely with storm flaps and metal snap fasteners. And inside the left chest pocket you’ll find a second concealed zipped pocket for valuables, treasure maps, or ancient relics.

Huge storage pockets to replace a backpack

At the back of the jacket we’ve built in two huge storage pockets. They’re 35cm deep. They can hold at least 3 litres. And they fasten shut with robust metal snaps. So if you’ve left your bag at home, you can use your jacket instead. The pockets are constructed with a curved entrance so you can easily reach into them without having to take the jacket off.

Designed to look and feel lived in from day one

Our goal was to build a jacket that looks and feels ready to travel anywhere from the moment you get it. So we headed to northern Italy – the birthplace of modern garment dyeing – to work with a partner that specialises in creating complex colours in exceptional fabrics. Here it took months of experimentation to develop and refine the multi-step process which creates the jacket’s unique look and feel.

Lightweight, durable, and built with custom dyes and high spec metal components, it’s a jacket that looks like it’s truly lived.

Made with a custom dyeing process

We start with a green military fabric which we cut, sew and construct into jackets. The jackets are coloured again as we submerge them in a sand-coloured dye, blending the two colours to lighten the green. Finally they’re lightly stone-washed to create a patina around the seams and metal components. This process gives every jacket its own distinctive visual texture that means no two jackets will ever be the same.

It will develop its own unique fade patterns

As well as creating unique colours and patterns that make each jacket look like it’s stepped off a film set, this method of repeat dyeing and washing relaxes and softens the material to make the jacket feel like you’ve already owned it for 20 years. And the more adventures you take it on, the more it will continue to mould to your body and develop its own unique fade patterns. 

Built with soft cotton, and reinforced with nylon

The jacket is constructed from a lightweight blend of cotton for comfort and nylon for strength. Milled in Italy the material is soft, malleable and breathable thanks to its cotton base. It’s then reinforced with 25% nylon for increased durability, creating a dense, wind-resistant weave. It makes it the kind of jacket you’ll want to travel the world in.

The more adventures you take it on, the more it will mould to your body and develop its own unique fade patterns. 

A high collar to protect your neck

When the weather turns hostile you can adjust the collar for protection. You can flip it up to convert it into a high collar that covers your neck, before fastening it across your throat with the latch and button.

Durable detailing throughout

The jacket fastens down the centre with a heavy-duty metal zipper protected by a storm flap that closes with metal press studs. The cuffs tighten around your wrists with the same metal snaps and two tightness settings to choose from. And we’ve reinforced the critical seams inside the jacket with strong herringbone tape.
