the m-1951 parka was the second parka of its kind to be introduced to the us army during the korean war. its oversized silhouette enabled the soldiers to wear all of their combat gear underneath it. buzz rickson's version is made in japan from soft but durable, tightly woven cotton sateen fabric which boasts a water repellent finish. this parka is a must-have for the autumn layering game.
