Great job, Pentagon! For a long time, I was looking for a parka for very low temperatures that would meet certain requirements—and this model meets them all. - The quality is top-notch thanks to the use of Rip-Stop nylon and Cordura in various spots. - Water resistance is also excellent due to the double-laminated PU coating, which works great. - The insulation, made of synthetic Primaloft Silver HiLoft Ultra (200 g/m2—key for me!), guarantees high effectiveness, while the jacket remains thin and light. The high, fleece collar provides great protection from cold and wind, and the additional cord adjustment inside the collar allows for a perfect fit. The Velcro-adjustable cuffs and elastic drawstrings add even more protection against the cold. A great detail is the internal snap-fastened waist belt, providing an extra barrier against wind gusts. - Despite so many features, the parka is well-ventilated thanks to underarm vents with two-way zippers (the only minor point—it’s challenging to zip them while wearing, but they’re still the best on the market, so it’s not a flaw). - Comfort is also top-notch—even though this is a warm, heavily insulated, and long jacket, it’s extremely comfortable and doesn’t restrict movement. The interior is pleasant, with a lot of attention to detail—for example, the soft material in the high collar protects the chin from chafing and accidental contact with the zipper. - The jacket is very functional, with many spacious pockets and two convenient hand pockets which keep hands warm. The hood is also excellently designed and can be easily detached if needed. - And the appearance. The parka fits great, has a nice cut, and the chosen color (7013) looks fantastic. I definitely recommend this model! I hope Pentagon continues to produce it. PS. A small request to Military.eu—if you can restock the HCP pants in Coyote color, size S, length 34, that would be great, because after trying out the jacket, I’d like to have those pants too.
