The U.S. Army's immortal masterpiece, the "M-65 Parker," an early model - a full set with a sense of weight and presence, with a brass zipper specification shell manufactured in the early 1970s, is in stock.
The shell is a MEDIUM-REGULAR size made by WYNN INDUSTRIES in 1972, and the liner is a SMALL size made by WINFIELD in 1974, but there is little discomfort when worn, and it can be worn as a M size equivalent without problems. The fit when installed is also good, and there are no defects such as misalignment between buttons or tension mismatch. Noteworthy is the brass zipper, which is only found on early M-65 models. The heavy feel of the zipper and the tarnished brass texture give it a vintage charm. The liner has some signs of use, but there are no damages or tears, and it is in good condition for practical use. The hood is made by PROPPER in 1977 with wool base and synthetic fur, and both the contract and usage tags are still in good condition.
This is a piece of outerwear that embodies functionality, warmth, and military heritage. The number of brass zippers in this age group is decreasing in the market, and this is a perfect item for those who are looking for a brass zipper without worrying about the size.
