Product Overview
The Build Your Brandit M65 jacket is a modern interpretation of the classic field jacket, an iconic silhouette that has maintained its cult status for decades. Designed with a vintage aesthetic, this garment is far more than a simple fashion statement; it is a highly functional piece of outerwear engineered for durability and versatility in demanding environments. Featuring a substantial shell fabric and a removable lining, it offers a modular solution for those who require a jacket that can adapt to shifting British weather conditions.
Key Features
- Water-repellent Finish: The outer shell is treated to resist moisture, ensuring that light rain beads off the surface rather than soaking through to your base layers.
- Removable Lining: This internal layer provides significant thermal insulation when required but can be easily detached, making the jacket suitable for year-round use.
- Ample Storage: Equipped with two large chest pockets and two spacious front flap pockets, providing secure storage for essential tools, documents, or mobile devices.
- Integrated Hood: A hidden cotton hood is tucked into the collar, ready to be deployed via drawstring for additional protection against sudden showers.
- Adjustable Fit: Featuring an adjustable waist and hook-and-loop fastenings at the sleeve ends to allow for a tailored fit that prevents cold draughts from entering.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a robust blend of polyester and cotton, the shell fabric is designed to withstand the rigours of daily wear while maintaining a professional appearance. The medium-weight construction provides a sturdy feel without being overly restrictive. Performance is further enhanced by the popper-fastened shoulder tabs and a covered zip front, which reinforce the jacket's wind-resistant properties. The combination of various fabric linings—including 100% cotton for comfort—ensures the jacket remains breathable during physical activity.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Build Your Brandit M65 jacket is an excellent canvas for corporate branding. We recommend embroidery for a sophisticated, professional finish; it is particularly effective on the chest or shoulders for company logos or staff names. The durable nature of the shell fabric supports high-stitch-count embroidery without puckering.
For those requiring high-impact visibility or larger designs, print customisation is also available. This is ideal for large-scale branding across the back of the jacket. Our expert in-house team in Telford, with experience dating back to 1976, will ensure your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the garment's professional integrity.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for field engineers, site managers, and delivery personnel who require a professional yet rugged appearance. Its heritage styling also makes it a popular choice for retail and hospitality brands looking for a high-quality, rebrandable outerwear option that stands out from standard corporate fleece or softshell jackets.

Practical Advice
The M65 jacket features a generous cut to accommodate the internal lining and layering underneath. We recommend referring to the chest measurements provided to ensure the correct fit. If you intend to wear the jacket primarily without the lining during warmer months, you may find a more fitted look by choosing the lower end of your size range.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and aesthetic of your jacket, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures may degrade the water-repellent coating and could potentially impact the longevity of your custom branding.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will compromise the fabric's structural integrity and lead to significant discolouration. When drying, use a low-temperature tumble dry setting or, preferably, hang the jacket to air dry to preserve its shape.
Should ironing be necessary, use a low heat setting. High heat can damage the synthetic fibres in the polyester blend and may melt printed customisation. Do not dry clean this garment, as the chemicals used in the process can strip the technical finishes from the fabric.
