Brooklyn Armed Forces Reproduction M1951 Fishtail Snorkel Parka, Mil Spec New L

Description: Size Is Men's Large, Tags in coat says medium, but it fits perfect a 185 pound guy with 33 inch sleeve length, 18 neck who is 5 11. So this is a large coat that was mismarked in the factory. All buttons and zippers function perfectly. If I did already have a snorkel jacket I would thing about keeping this one, nice coat will last a very long time with basic care. New With Tags, Photo's 2, 3 and 4 are actual item, others photo's are agency Pics.Have lived in Duluth MN and experienced 70 to 100 below wind chills so I feel I know something about cold weather and cold weather clothing, esp since as a student I did not have a car so got to walk a mile to school...These jackets will keep you very warm, simply put snorkels work, flat out if your head is warm it is easier to keep everything else warm, used to wear four hats and even added a hand warmer between hat 1 and 2 to keep warm and still (can't move or fidget) bow hunting in sub zero temps. These jackers are long, ski jackets and a wading duck jacket are great for their purpose, but for cold weather always get a long jacket. Finally, add enough insulation as these jackets have and you will be much warmer, people who do not have great cold winter kit will look at your jacket longingly at least that was my experience on truly cold days and even colder nights on Duluth and other places in MN.This Brooklyn Armed ForcesTM M1951 Parka is a faithful reproduction of a piece of classic U.S. military surplus. Known variously as the Fishtail Parka (because of the extra drawstring at the hem) or the Snorkel Parka (because the fur-lined hood cinches tight for added warmth). What is known for sure is this Parka is uniquely stylish and incredibly warm for the most demanding cold-weather conditions.Unlike many reproductions out there, this M51 Parka features a cuddly-soft mohair frieze lining almost identical to the original. The big difference: instead of being a relic from the 60’s, this Parka is brand new and fresh out of the factory.Manufactured by Brooklyn Armed Forces.Brooklyn Armed Forces is an experienced maker of military issue clothing used by the U.S. Armed Forces.
