One Of The Finest Parkas To Ever Parka
Excellent parka, the outer shell is surprisingly soft and the liner is very soft as well. The zip in liner is 100% polyester but comfortable with elastic cuffs to keep the wind out. It has one zip pocket and a dual pen pocket on the left chest. No waist cinch although the cuffs of the shell are velcro and the hem is cinchable.
The liner has a tag with the year of manufacture of 2008. The left arm patch means this jacket belonged to the North-Rhine Westphalia state police (I believe), German police pretty much no longer use green though. The "Polizei" on the back, the cuffs, and the buttons are reflective. There is a basic stowaway hood in the collar. This jacket came with the large side zips for accessing your waist pockets and probably a service weapon. The side zips are large so you can access rear pants pockets with ease as well. You can also stick your hands in the side zips to keep them warm.
On the shell there are 2x button closed chest pockets, 2x button closed waist pockets, and 2x waist pockets stacked behind the button closed ones, they can be accessed via vertical zips. The chest pockets have subdividers and stuff and some sort of badge hanger.
This jacket with liner is extremely warm, the side zips can help vent out some heat, no pit zips though. Good jacket for rain, wind, snow, and weather under 50F I'd say.
I have wide shoulders but size 54 fit me perfect. The waist is quite loose but that's just how the jacket is meant to be, it allows easy access to…
