Premium Essentials M65 Unlined Hooded Jacket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This jacket was for my husband. Clothing is weird sometimes - it didn't look so awesome to me taking it out of the package, like to me, that style in that orange color looked like a prison uniform. but once my husband put it on, it looked pretty nice and fit him well. it actually looked more fashionable over it being a work or utility jacket. he is on the shorter side, but he liked that there were straps to adjust some things and he wasn't swimming in it. he liked how it looked on. it was nice and lightweight without feeling cheap - it seemed to be average on the durability. overall we can't find a reason not to rate it 5 stars.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The style of the jacket is great, it has a northwest vibe and feel trendy wearing it. Comfort wise it’s on the stiffer side, but it does a good job keeping the rain and wind out. This jacket has all the features I wanted, wind/rain proof, the hood can be rolled up and stored, plenty of pockets, and the hidden zipper chest pocket was a nice surprise. Thanks I am usually between a small and a medium, I went with a medium so I could fit a warmer jacket under it cause it’s not lined for much warmth, but it works well for layering. The medium worked fine for me. Favorite features of this jacket includes all the pockets and option to layer. Least favorite feature is the jacket is a little stiff for my taste, but hopefully that will soften up with more wear. Also could use some venting options to be a little more sporty and let out some heat, but overall a great jacket.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Sportswear M65 was a fantastic jacket for me when I go on my morning jogs. It provided me with a little insulation and was waterproof, therefore, I felt dry and warm. The jacket does seem a little fitted for me, but that did not bother my mobility. If I had an extra sweater or long sleeve shirt underneath the jacket, it might have been an issue. The color and design is really nice. I’m able to wear this out to meet friends or when I need to throw a quick jacket on for an evening walk. The jacket I tried was a size medium. If I went one size bigger, I would have had more room around my torso, but my sleeves would have been too long. The one feature I wish this jacket had was a couple of vent slots around the underarm area. I felt that when I was near the end of my jog, the inside fabric of the jacket would stick to me because of the sweat. Other than that, it had enough pockets, both outside and inner, to put my essentials in it. This jacket was pretty stylish as comfortable. Would highly recommend it for an active parent or someone that needs a casual all-weather jacket.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally got around to wearing the M65 jacket and I have to say I have a new favorite grab and go jacket. It’s definitely a lot less military esque than traditional M65 field jackets but I like the modern spin Nike took with it. Sharp lines, flat pockets and the vertical black tag on the back makes the whole jacket makes for a clean look. I also really like how durable it is. We went to a alpaca farm over the weekend and... well it definitely didn't look like new jacket by the time we left the place. The crazy part was once I got home I basically hosed jacket down and shook the water off. To my shock, I have a brand new jacket lol. Areas of improvement, the bottom waist area is a little too tight, especially since it's a long jacket. It would have been great if it had one of those elastic thread that lets you adjust the tightness. I know that's goes against the whole M65 look.
