Johnny Turk is Ready.
After a bizarrely short-lived (2018-2021) and late adopted 90's style woodland uniform, Byzan--er, we mean Turkey adopted a new NON-DIGITAL camo pattern, similar to ATACS.
This cloudy green, brown, and khaki pattern blends well in a variety of temperate and arid environments, looks great, and comes in a practical modernized cut. It's great kit and a great fit no matter which physical or digital crusade we're on by the time it enters your collection.
This modern lightweight lined parka features a sturdy zipper with hidden zippered hood, cozy fleece liner, and zippered shoulder and hip pockets.
Specs
Condition
Field Parkas are generally in great condition, with only mild signs of wear at most (no tears, cuts, major stains, or holes), and all hardware (zippers, buttons, etc) present and functional.
Sizing
Turkey has a surprisingly well put together sizing system for their garments. Essentially, it's akin to European sizes, where the listed size is the user's chest circumference in centimeters multiplied by 2 (e.g. a Size 51 is meant for someone with a 102cm chest circumference).
They also have heights for each garment, which are very similar to the US Military's 'Short', 'Regular', and 'Long', which we've translated the Turkish sizes to.
Exceptional warm, great fit, loads of pockets
Fit for most weather places, only sad part is stitching in pocket was open, but no biggie besides that good camo jacket to run around in the woods!
Material is a broken in canvas feel. Dark green micro fleece will do a great job with warmth and hold up to wash without self destructing. The inside arms are a satin poly, similar to a Barbour jacket I have. The satin is soft on bare skin, but with hotter temps will make your arms sweat up. A light layer LS blocks that effect.
Love the 2 way zipper, hood stows nicely. This layered with a wind blocker will hold nice. One thing Arcterex doesn’t do is hold up to shell casings, simple camo fires. This is durable.
