SERVICEABLE USED CONDITION - MINOR FLAWS - ZIP TAB REPLACED WITH SPLIT RING = BARGAIN PRICE

SIZE Gr.48 174/96 MEDIUM TO APPROXIMATELY 5'10"

For sale here is a GENUINE Bundeswehr issue cold weather parka, this is the longer length version which features two lower dump pockets and a two upper handwarmer pockets to the chest, the shell fabric and synthetic pile liner are just the same as the more commonly found shorter version.

These are incredible quality parkas which give many years of good service, these have been hugely popular surplus coats for decades but since they have not been made since the 1980's (The genuine ones like this that is, the repro ones are nowhere near as good quality!), prices are now continually rising as supplies evaporate.

SIZE: Parka label gives size as Gr.48 174/96, so designed for someone up to 174cm/5'9" with a 96cm/38" natural chest so very much a MEDIUM, I am 5'10" and wear either a medium or small depending on the cut and this fits me fine. Please go by the measurements as they come up on the tape which are as follows: 50" chest (25" pit-to-pit), 20.5" across the shoulders, 17" under-arm, 24.5" total sleeve length from shoulder seam to bottom of cuff, 38.5" from rear hood seam to bottom hem of parka.

CONDITION: Parka is in serviceable used condition with minor flaws, the zip tab is missing and has been replaced with a split ring (It works fine, personally I would add a cord loop), the hood drawcord is absent (Easily replaced if you were bothered), there is general wear, a couple of small grubby marks and light fade from service use and the cuffs show light wear (See photos). The liner is present and is the original factory one, same maker, same size, same contract. This parka is not perfect but it is perfectly serviceable and is being offered here at an absolute bargain price.

ONE ONLY, clearance price, this will give someone years of good service, in need of a good new home, a bargain for someone!

POSTAGE: This is quite a heavy piece of kit weighing in at 2.28kg, postage cost reflects this but it is only charged at cost.
