Goldeneye M65 field jacket replica

PPK 7.65mm

Hello all,

I was just thinking about the teaser scene in Goldeneye and how much I liked the tactical wear Bond sports in this scene. I know from previous research that his jacket is a American made M-65 field jacket and I would like to add one to my collection. My question is what kind of changes were made by the costume department prior to filming?


I welcome any input that you might have. Thank You.

If I recall correctly they added pockets on the arms and zelcro closures at the wrists. Not sure what else because the tactical vest covered most of it.

Here are a few pics of the EON-sanctioned jacket that Secret Identitee made for promo purposes when GoldenEye was released. It shows the velcro cuffs. If you need anymore pics, just let me know.

Loved it so much, I've tracked down two! I would let you have one, but I won my second one in a charity auction and it's signed by a Mr S. Bean, and I've been meaning to have the other one tailored, as it's a large, and obviously a tad on the large side...

@ Dirty Punker Thank you for the link, it was very helpful. @Meesta Bawnd Thanks for sharing the pictures of the EON licensed replica, those will really come in handy for adding the sleeve pockets and Velcro wrist closures. Just need to purchase an M65 field jacket to get started.

I hesitate to mention this because I don't want Mantis to be inundated with requests. However, I am the proud owner of a replica of this jacket that our very own Mantis shepherded through EONs ago (pardon the pun). It does not have the 007 logos and is therefore screen accurate. I think I know the maker too, however since it was Mantis' baby...

I hope you can forgive me Mantis, I didn't intend to step on your toes because bespoke John Lobbs are expensive. But your jacket is just too sweet!
