The U.S. military's best of the best for extreme cold weather - a full set of M-65 parkas in extremely good condition. This is a must-have for collectors, with an ISRATEX shell, GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES liner, and hood with full tags, all manufactured in the mid-1980s. All sizes are SMALL.
The shell is a rare lot with a resin zipper that was produced in small numbers. The unique and light feeling of opening and closing the zipper and the quiet appearance that sets it apart from metal zippers are appealing. The condition of this item is very good, as it appears to be unused and in storage, and apart from wrinkles and minor storage stains, it is a beautiful item with no signs of wear. The liner is used with some signs of use, but there are no tears or fatal stains, and there are no practical problems at all. The contract tag with HOOD EXTREME COLD WEATHER notation remains firmly on the hood and is in good condition. The "SMALL size" M-65 parka fits the Japanese body shape very well, and is a popular size that many people are looking for. As well as being a mainstay outerwear for midwinter, it is a piece that can stay with you for many years to come as a complete military style piece.
