The M-51 Field Jacket is a masterpiece that shines brilliantly in the history of U.S. military uniforms. This jacket was born during the Korean War and protected soldiers in extremely cold battlefields. It is a model that became the cornerstone of later military outerwear in terms of functionality, durability, and design.
This is an original actual released item made in the 1950s. The tag on the inside of the jacket is still firmly marked " COAT, MAN'S, COTTON, WIND RESISTANT, SATEEN, 9 OZ., OG 107 " and the model number " DA 36-243-QM(CTM)-8037-C-60 " can be read. This information indicates that this item was contracted in 1960.
The material is thick 9 oz. cotton satin (OG-107 ). This densely woven fabric is windproof and durable, making it suitable for outdoor work. The practical design also features a built-in drawcord at the waist and hem to allow the garment to fit snugly against the body for added warmth.
The four-pocket design on the front, military style with shoulder patches, and a system that allows the hood and liner to be attached with buttons, are all reasons why this is a masterpiece. The tag carefully describes how to wear and maintain the jacket, showing how soldiers at the time handled this jacket. The size is marked "SHORT SMALL".
This jacket has a realistic feel ofhaving been worn in actual combat and training, and there are some scuffs and stains on the right sleeve. The rugged and masculine appearance is the one and only charm that cannot be found in replicas or new items.
This is a gem that we can confidently recommend to military fans and vintage fashion lovers alike.
This is a pre-owned item and cannot be returned. Please understand.
