I can recommend m-65 from Alpha Industries. Own two (black and green with liner) and I'm very happy.

Second this. I own an alpha industries jacket they made with gloverall. It is perfect and outperforms several more expensive jackets.
Come to think of it, gloverall has a surplus department on their website. Great quality, buy it for life jackets with enormous discounts. Pound has fallen so.
If that is not your taste I also recommend Schott Nyc.
Good luck and all the best to You.

Thanks for the suggestion. Looking for something more sporty that I could also wear when I go skiing. Thanks ❤️

Depends on the kind of skiing you do. If you're talking cross-country skiing then it's a lot smarter to get a separate jacket for that because you have opposite requirements for standing around/walking and something as energetic as xc skiing.
If you're talking about downhill skiing you can do that in M65 no problem. I've used an M65 with a liner for snowboarding at -30C without any issues. It's heavier than snowboarding jackets and doesn't have a snow -skirt but other than that it was great.

No clue, friend - it was a genuine US Army issue given to me by a friend, not sure who made it.
