buzz rickson's | br14719 m-65 cold weather parka
the m-65 parka is the successor to the m-51 parka and an early model of the garment that would go on to be named the "parka, extreme cold weather". confusingly the parka was called m-65, not to be mistaken for the completely different m-65 field jacket. the parka features a fishtail silhouette that is wide and relaxed, cut long for layering over one or several other garments of various thicknesses. the buzz rickson’s version is made in japan from a cotton-nylon blend that is a 1:1 replica of the fabric the original jackets. this material had the advantage, in addition to a low dead weight, of drying faster when wet and used in wet areas.
