Over the weekend, apparel company Alpha Industries launched an Antifa-influenced M-65 Anarchy Cotton-Blend Field Jacket on high-end retailer Barneys' website.
Now the $375 military-style canvas zip-up with “stand collar” and “snap flap patch pockets,” is getting slammed by the demographic it was trying to market to – Antifa members and anarchists.

Does it come with a matching p#$$y hat?
Coddling that the Anqueefa crowd would like.
If Barney's really wants to unload these jackets they need to offer them with photos of leftist stooges.Like Barack Obama, Hillary, Soros, Mao, Pol-Pot, Don Lemon, Nana Piglosi, etc.....
I thought you were posting that pic as a joke!
That’s the real jacket!
For that kind of money, it should.
M-65’s were all the rage in the late 60s and early 70s. Functional outerwear that was useless in cold weather, even with the liner.
Cheap too! I opted for the denim field coat. Which was more durable.
LOL, an anti-corporate, anti-American jacket made by an American corporation.
With the interaction I have had with the Left, you can spot them a mile away, especially the ones that may have served in the military at some point, and are involved with organizations such as “Veterans for Peace” and such.
They want so badly to be back in the Sixties that they wear the fatigue jacket, often manually emblazoned with the stupidity on this jacket.
The really, REALLY stupid leftists (and which of them isn’t?) shell out $400 so someone else can put the “correct symbols” on them to try to make it look authentic.
If these people weren’t so dangerously unbalanced, they would be hilarious.
My first suit I can recall came from Robert Hall.
Purchased during the early 60s while I was living in the US.
Googled them to see if they were still in business
and sadly see they folded in in 1977.

Les Paul and Mary Ford commercial for Robert Hall....
Remember the ‘ol “once you make the cover of T!M< magazine you are no longer in style” this is parallel to that concept. Perhaps Antifu is approaching the caricature stage, after which comes cynicism, late night jokes, and fizzle. Which denotes a faddish, trendy flash-in-the-pan movement.
Is that a white diaper above those jeans? I always understood that real Antifa members wore red diapers.
Just in time for holiday gift giving. Wonder how many AntifaIL cadets will find one under the tree when they come up from the basement on Christmas morning? At that price, it will have to be their “big gift”, though.
Dang. Way back in the early ‘80s, we hosted a German foreign exchange student. He asked if he could take my dad’s old Army jacket and mark it with chalk (so it would wash off). He spiked up his hair, put an eraser on the pointy end of a safety pin and went as a punk. All for nothing more than the cost of the chalk and hair goop.
For dress-up day at the high-school, that is. He was actually quite the opposite from a punk...
It was 40 degrees or so the day they arrived. They were the right cut and design just like the old one except that all the materials except the snaps had changed. The outer shell had been changed to that trash flight nylon that no enlisted man should ever be issued. The old batted insulation was replaced by something like thinsulate and so poorly distributed that in some places I could rub the inner liner directly against the outer shell. I went outside and after just a few minutes was getting cold.
I posted about it back then and will repeat what I said then, assuming that they are still producing trash for the military, corruption of whomever may have approved this contract needs to be investigated and treason charges brought to those who knowingly have diminished our troop capability and endangered those troops lives.
I immediately sent them back.
