Main features

Built for wet, windy and variable conditions, the parka combines weatherproof materials and practical field details.

• Water-repellent polyamide shell with Oeko‑Tex certification for safer textile use.
• Advanta® membrane for a balance of waterproofing and breathability.
• Sealed seams with hot tape to prevent water ingress at stitch lines.
• Central zip with storm flap secured by seven press studs for added wind and rain protection.
• Armpit zips for targeted ventilation and temperature control during activity.
• Removable olive micro‑fleece liner (100% polyester micro pile) for modular insulation or standalone use.
• Field pockets and ID areas: shoulder arm pocket with Velcro flap, Velcro loop on the right arm for a 6x7 cm patch, plus two small internal zip pockets.
• Adjustable Velcro cuffs and an internal drawcord hem for a secure fit and reduced heat loss.

How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: use the parka as a primary outer layer in wet and windy weather, or remove the fleece liner for milder conditions. It works well for patrols, field operations, search and rescue, hiking and other outdoor duty where weather protection and mobility are required.

In most cases, open the armpit zips during strenuous activity to boost airflow and close them when resting or in heavy rain to maintain waterproofing. The removable liner can be worn alone as a light jacket or zipped into the shell for full thermal protection.

Care and notes

Maintain performance by following the garment care label and basic handling steps. Take care with the membrane and sealed seams to preserve waterproofing.

• Follow the care label instructions on the jacket and liner.
• Remove the fleece liner before washing the outer shell.
• Close zips and fasten the storm flap before cleaning to protect hardware and seams.
• Avoid harsh solvents and strong fabric softeners that can reduce water repellency.
