Its pretty alright
Its fits very well and really good to wear
We've all seen it — that guy in track pants and a camouflage jacket. He's sitting in the café inconspicuously. A satellite phone rings. He raises it to his ear and says "da" in some vague Eastern European accent. The soundtrack, composed by Hans Zimmer, intensifies as our generic warlord unzips the duffel bag sitting at his feet and removes a folding stock AKM.
The Croatian woodland parka is based on the classic M65 parka that we all know and love. The croats use a lighter construction than the Austrian or US versions you might be used to. The result is a spacious and freely moving jacket suitable for even the most eager henchmen.
To be completely fair, they didn't completely steal the camo. Croat M81 is a tiny bit different than ours in that it's splotchy patterns are slightly different shaped and the overall pattern includes a little more tan.

Parka arrived in better shape than expected. Colors were richer than M81 that I'd seen in the past. Buttons all accounted for and hood is oversized in the event you need to wear it over a hat. Perfect for hiking in the woods or overthrowing third-world governments.
Send me a letter telling me if Alia enjoyed his golden wheat.
Nice flowy fit for layering, and the extra guard folded into the cuff of each wrist that protects water and snow from getting into your sleeves when folded out is a nice touch. should be a nice outer layer, unless it's too rainy, but that's why waterproofing spray exists. Should be fine as-is if you're just hiking in damp conditions or hiding out in a cave. The "evil dude" factor is high with this jacket.
This thing is thin. Really thin. I'm fairly certain my thin Adidas hoodie is warmer than this thing. It's still plenty warm to be out in the cold, but fuck man it's super light despite it's size. I'm 179cm and fairly average build, and the size 50 I ordered is nice and baggy and cozy. It's thin enough that I could easily go out in the heat and still stay comfortable. Ordered 'Good' quality and it very much lives up to that quality. Nicely worn-in and still intact, but clearly had patches put on and taken off on the chest and shoulder. Ivan isn't joking around when he says this'll make you look like a stereotypical warlord, even donning it over my casual weekend apparel makes me look like a grizzled Ex-Balkan soldier who's enjoying his day off.
