The M41 Field Jacket Review

[Harry Fabian]

Just picked up 2 original WWII M41 jackets and thought you might like to see my review on them.

This would definitely be a great lightweight everyday beater jacket if they were readily available for cheap on the surplus market today.
For me I used a 70's USN utility jacket my uncle gave me as a beater, that's what I wear in the fall at work then switch to an m65 from my dad in the winter.

Atthefront had an unlined version several years back and I had one for a few days. It had a prob with one shoulder, which I should have just fixed but didn't bother and thrifted it. Same outer shell but only a thin cotton lining instead of the wool, it would have been a great summer jacket.

Anyways, good video, thanks for posting! I will definitely watch more and subscribe and like.

I have one of those "summer" ATF M-41s with the same-cotton-as-exterior lining. It IS a really good summer jacket... although this year it's just been too warm for any kind of jacket around here, even at night.
