I really like the M65 pants, particularly the authentic version but am open to a good copy. Know a good source?

Thanks!
First I wanted to say thank you. I have had a pair of these that I got from my father. I never knew what designator they had since they are very worn. I can say that I have continued to wear them regularly and have taken them to a seamstress to be re-sewn which was rather expensive. I will now look for a few replacement pairs.
For those that have bought reproductions and have had the original, how do the reproduction pants compare? Fit, build, pocket placement?
