Technical Condition & Authenticity:
Unlike many surplus parkas, this 1991 Tennessee Apparel Corp contract piece has been exceptionally well-preserved. The internal Gore-Tex seam tape is fully intact with no delamination (white flaking), ensuring it maintains its waterproof integrity. All original brass snaps and the two-way YKK heavy-duty zipper are in perfect working order.
• Sizing Note: This is a "Medium Short." It is designed to be oversized to fit over a fleece liner or sweater.
• Care Instructions: To maintain the Gore-Tex, do not use standard detergents. Use a dedicated technical wash to keep the pores open and the fabric breathable.
