M-51 or M-65 Military Field Jacket
This section is sponsored by
I was wondering if anyone has or can point me to a downloadable sewing pattern for the old Army Field jacket known as the M65 or M51?
I want to make a couple in a special material pattern that isn’t available from the jacket makers

Patterns for things like this tend not to be made. The clothing is usually patented. Why not take an old jacket bought from and Army Surplus outfit to bits and use it as a pattern? You’ll also see how they constructed the thing… :)

Yep, that’s what I had originally planned to do, but I was just being lazy.
Thanks :)
