Description
This is an APECS Parka in NWUII, basically AOR1, that is used by the US Military. It is somewhat similar to the ECWCS Level 6 jackets, but a bit heavier in construction. It features two large pockets with hook and loop closures on the stomach and regular hoodie style pockets behind them, allowing it to function as a standalone jacket without relying on layers underneath to have pockets. The shoulders also have pockets with hook and loop closures. There are also two flat chest pockets that close with a covered water resistant zipper. Zippers on the armpits allow for ventilation during warm weather. Inside the collar is a stowable hood to keep the user’s head dry. The wrist cuffs re adjustable with hook and loop and the waist is adjustable with shock cord and cord locks found inside the large front pockets. Overall this is a great jacket in a very effective pattern.
