    M-65 Field Jacket

    Wore my M65 with a liner today in Jax (low 30's) while outside with my pug. Works well even in colder/windy weather with gloves and a wool cap. My first M65 was issued to me at Lackland, Texas without a liner. ("If I had needed a liner they would have issued me a liner.") (A liner would have...

    Christmas jackets, coats and all things warming

    Coronado American Bison Leather Jacket for my brother and me. :) I like mine. I noticed that there is almost a $250 price reduction today, both on Amazon and on the Orvis web site. (Size selection is reduced though.) Just need some cooler weather here in Jacksonville, FL.

    US Coast Guard vs. Navy G-1 (G-1 experts, please help)

    U.S.Wings have USCG G1's (in goat) with handwarmers (way down on their G1 page), and apparently sell some to the government/military. I have had mine (48 Long) for a few years and I like mine. Don't get much chance to wear them in Florida though.

    Jacket Linings, web site

    Really did not want to single out any one company in my orginal post. When I decide to order a jacket of my choice, I'll mention the environment I expect to wear the jacket in and ask what linings they currently have, or ask for their recommendation.

    Jacket Linings, web site

    Some companies that make jackets available from the internet seem to have a nice selection of custom jacket linings, from what I can tell from the various forum threads. So why are there no web pages with the various available jacket linings?

    Pharr Brand G-1 jacket

    Pharr Brand Name Apparel won a 5 million dollar contract to supply the Navy with G-1 jackets as I recall. Did they fulfill the contract with acceptable jackets? Would anyone have one of their G-1 military jackets and like to comment on the construction and quality?

    Parka for midwestern winter?

    A parka would be a real wise choice when the northern Ohio weather becomes challenging. I worked at a Navy depot in Mechanicsburg, PA for eight years in the late eighties and the coldest I experienced was a minus 10 degrees with 20 mph wind, and snow of course. As a Florida transplant I was...
