[JCMx800]

I have one question, what can I do with the slots in the collar?

It´s for some kind of badges???

[FurattoHeddo]

^It's for the draw strings of the hood …

[JCMx800]

Well, that makes sense and was pretty obvious haha Thank you very much

[FurattoHeddo]

It took me a while to figure that out, so don't worry

Ahhh, that takes me back, I had a military issue M65 in black from high school through college… great jacket.

I love my M65. It's a jacket I've been on the hunt for for years but never pulled the trigger on. Instacopped the black one, and can see the upcoming Denim joining it;

Finn, great to see you making the most of VMC. Such a great opportunity

any xxl's in green floating around anywhere?

[Scottystyles]

IHM-02 is definitely a beautiful thing! I grabbed a OD green in XL. Beautiful fit too!
Bit tight when I have a jumper/hoodie under it though. But Aussie weather you don't really need anything thicker than a flanny under it.

Always loved this style of jacket. When I first joined the army they were still issue as the M65 field jacket. This one is soo much better made obviously and better fitted. Keeping in mind though the original was designed to fit a detachable jacket thermal liner in it.

Congrats man I am definitely a fan of that jacket. Wore a black military issue one a lot in high school and college. Classic design and the IH one looks amazing.

[Finn666]

OD green? like OD in overdye green? ???

@mclaincausey:

Classic design and the IH one IS amazing.

[Chris]

The other OD- olive drab.  That's the term for that classic army green.  Not confusing at all, is it Finn?

[Finn666]

^ well, not anymore! thx

[Scottystyles]

Yeah Rafa, Olive Drab is the the classic military term or just OD Green. Mind you, most issue army clothing these days are camo. But when I first Joined up in 88 we still had OD Green in the Australian Army.

[Giles]

Or ODG….

[Finn666]

a great thing to know…thanks guys!

[mclaincausey]

I really wish I'd grabbed that OD off the eBay…
