Feeling Militant: Finalized

Topic: M65
Object: compare and contrast
Soldier: SoHo B

This is the Marc by Marc Jacobs M65 military jacket. There are four exterior pockets, no inside pockets, sholder straps, adjustable wrist width and length, also pull strings at the bottom of the jacket for a closer fit if desired. Comes equip with a hood concealed in the neck of the jacket by a zipper and a velcro neck strap. However there aren't any patches like the ones on the BBC jacket as a matter of fact there aren't any patches at all. I guess Jacobs was going on the idea that you have to earn your stripes.

The back is pretty simple, nothing about it really draws your attention or captivates you. Unlike the BBC jacket there is no pleat therefor be cautious when tightening the bottom of this jacket, you may find forward motion a little more challenging than normal. In the picture above the jacket front is open but you can still see the contour of the body in the back of the jacket meaning that when this jacket is closed and the neck strap is hooked, pleat or no pleat; lookout!
