This was recently pulled out of a RCAF families basement after some inquires at a garage sale. Never been in a collection or messed with. Reversible 3/4 length, cotton/rayon blend construction, double breasted style parka with machine rolled splinter pattern camouflage in shades of green, tan and brown to the exterior. The parka features a large, overlapping, vertical, six button front closure with a smaller, overlapping, exterior, wind flap. The parka has two, slightly, diagonally angled, slash hip pockets with straight edged, button down flaps, positioned at either side of the front closure, at the waistline. The straight cut, dual-ply, sleeve cuffs each have a machine stitched, horizontal, tunnel loop with an inserted, horizontally extend, white and grey/green fabric, fit adjustment draw strap and dual corresponding fit adjustment strap to each cuff. The sleeves each have a large, dual-ply, rectangular reinforcement panel to each elbow and buttons to both the inner and outer, upper sleeve seams, which were designed for wear of the identification armbands by front line troops. The parka has a single-ply, unpadded, integral hood, which is large enough to accommodate a helmet. The forward edge of the hood has four, small, evenly spaced, tapering darts and a machine stitched, tunnel loop with an inserted fit adjustment drawstring intact. The interior of the parka is fully lined, excluding the hood, but including the sleeves, in white with an ersatz, internal, heat retaining, padding through-out. The interior of the parka has a machine stitched, horizontal, tunnel loop positioned at the waistline, with a small, vertical, slash positioned at either side of the front closure, with dual, inserted, horizontally extend, white and grey/green fabric, fit adjustment draw straps to each. The interior, bottom edge of the tail skirt also has a machine stitched, horizontal, tunnel loop, with an inserted fit adjustment drawstring intact. The jacket has numerous period sewing repairs. The buttons for the cuffs and the white pockets are missing the rest are all intact although the white buttons suffer some paint loss. All typical for field worn items. Most likely a men's size small.
