Hey guys,

So my cousin just got a cool military-style jacket as a gift, and he doesn't know what brand it is.

I checked the label, it was a strip of navy blue fabric, on the front was an "M" (i don't think that was the size, because it looked like a small), and on the back said "Divided" and it was by some other company, I didn't get a good look at it, does it ring a bell for anybody?

Thanks

Cool thanks... It was pretty much exactly the kind of jacket I was looking for...

*sigh*, can't wait till Fall of this year when they finally get H&M over here on Western Canada.

If it falls apart soon, it just might be H&M lol.

I bought one of the military style H&M jackets about 2 weeks ago. Within two days one of the snap-buttons on the cuff broke off and I can start to see a few threads popping up.

With that said, I've gotten more compliments on this jacket than I have my others and let's face it, for $60-80 you get what you pay for, fortunately it's cheap enough to buy another one when I need it.

It's H&M. Quality concerns are neither here nor there; just stay away from certain stuff (polyester polo shirts, socks, nylon man-pris, the more creative jeans) and you'll be fine.

60-80 bucks with a button falling off in 2 days to me is not really getting what you paid for. It's still decent money and its not like an extra 200 dollars would have increased quality in their most likely exploitative factory. Some of their stuff is pretty cool. Sucks it has to die
