A response to the need for more functional uniforms to protect their troops, the Army began designs for the M-1943. Originally tested by troops in Sicily and Italy, the M-1943 Field Jacket was only issued to troops in 1944, due to design changes and contractor shortages. Reproduced according to the style of the 1940s original, this iconic jacket can be worn with a sweater, t-shirt, and even over your suit for a timeless, rugged style.
