I'm making an M-65 fishtail this season, so I was wondering what to do about the liner.
I wanted to make it a layered jacket, not a removable one, but I didn't want it to be exactly the same... On the day I was thinking about this, I was wearing the L-2B I had made before. When I was trying to close the zipper,
I was thinking, "The ribbing on the waist is good for improving the fit, but it feels a bit tight when you zip it up..." and then an idea came to me.
Could we remove this rib and make it into a standalone liner product?
In the first prototype, like the L-2B, we only used the front and back and did not put any padding, but it still didn't feel like a liner. So we put in a thin layer of padding.
The original pattern is an L-2B modified. The length is slightly longer. The ribbing on the cuffs is gone, and the fit is adjusted with snap buttons.
The outer material is 66 nylon twill. It is stiff at first, gradually softens, but maintains a firm texture that can't be found with other nylons.
The lining is cotton/rayon twill, not cotton/wool like the vintage L-2B, because wool makes it a little more difficult to handle.
It has piping all around and hand warmer pockets on both sides so it can be worn on its own.
The Sage Green is the same color as the previous L-2B. The Air Force Blue piping is intentionally OD. I imagined the atmosphere of the color scheme seen in the L-2A, where the rib color faded or was it never the same from the beginning.
I thought I could make it a little cheaper since it doesn't have ribbing or a cigarette pocket, but it has some padding in it, which means the cost of the fabric and labor has gone up...I'm sorry.

There are many similar products on the market these days, but even if they look the same, you can tell the difference when you touch them. Those who know will know. Those who know will know after a few years. Having many such products is one of WORKERS' characteristics.
The quality of this nylon is also good.
The fishtail version that Mr. Tateno intended to use in combination with this item is not currently in stock, but it can be used as a liner under a thin jacket such as a shop coat or coveralls to help regulate temperature.
Personally, I think it's much more streamlined and stylish than fluffy down jackets, so I recommend you try it as an outerwear piece.
