In case you need to stash your phone, keys or wallet in a spot that's out of the way each parka comes with two interior zip-up pockets.

Quilting is a time-tested method of retaining heat. The trapped air within the fabric acts as an insulator, preventing heat loss and keeping the body warm.

Each parka features a drawstring hood that folds into the collar when not in use. Great for protection from cold, wind and rain!

For maximum insulation and comfort each cuff comes with velcro adjustment tabs. Whether you need to preserve body heat or let in cool air, these'll do the job.

You'll have plenty of pocket space for your daily essentials. Each pocket utilizes the whole front panel of the jacket to give you maximum storage space. All are zip-up.

Rather than adopting a belt kit with separate rucksack, the Swiss built all these features into the standard issue jacket.

TAZ 57 "Alpenflage" is a Swiss variety of German Leibermuster. Some sources say that the Swiss obtained the pattern directly from WWII-era German uniform textile manufacturing lines from Czechoslovakia sometime postwar.

The woobie was invented in the 1960s for use in Vietnam. US troops found that wool blankets didn't work too well in humid conditions, so the military developed a water resistant nylon and polyester blanket.

The nylon exterior and polyester filling maintains warmth even when wet.

The woobie is a fantastic choice for outdoor excursions of all types due to its light weight and water resistance.

As with most USGI gear, the woobie is proudly made in the USA.

These woobies are in brand new, unissued condition. The same as they were when they left the factory in the mid-1990s.
