Fed Ex- New Parka
 

Anyone else been over to check out the new winter parka? I was pretty impressed...nice jacket (Northface) and hood combo.... Can we wear this thing system wide? I heard that there was an FCIF about it, but I'm too busy watching tv and resting up for my A reserve to look for it.

(Sorry, but its kind of quiet around here...:D)

In Part:
I am pleased to inform you of a new uniform item that is now available
through VF Solutions. A Northface parka has been added to the uniform
program at a cost of $195.00. You will be able to split the cost
over a 2-year period. The features of the parka are:

Any pictures of this on the net?

Any details?
Is it a nice waterproof shell and separate liner; not like the worthless liner in the leather jacket. The leather is too much for ANC in September and not enough by the time November rolls around.
It doesn't look like the George Costanza puffy jacket does it?

Looks like something 'Snoop Dog' would be wearing. Anyone bidding lines where you 'need' one of these is NOT senior enough !

Where can I get one:D

BTW. . isn't this what the rapper who was arrested at LAX this week wearing?

Nah, he was wearing a grey hoodie sweatshirt!

Here's Snoop modeling the jacket the LAX and ANC bases will be getting!

Here's what the website said about it:

The Parka is the same design as the Mountain Jacket, but with a fixed hood and thicker pile. Ideal for polar exploration*, indeed it was first made for use in Antarctica with the British Antarctic Survey. It is too warm for most activities in normal UK Winter conditions. Best suited for inactive use where body heat is not being produced by any exercise. 1190g.

WARNING: Buffalo is NOT waterproof!

*Polar exploration? Do walkarounds in MEM count?

Are you guys really looking into buying Polar??? Man, I can't wait to run with this rumor!! :D

Anyone know the actual model name of the parka?
