  • I posted this here instead of General Questions because of the Shameless reference* My leather jacket has seen better days and I want to replace it with a parka like Franks. I googled, but I really couldn’t find anything. Any Suggestions?

You’re looking for a men’s field coat.

That’s close, but not quite. Franks parka has a hood.

Nevermind.

Google “German army parka” or just “army parka”.

Here’s one.

Thanks! I knew I would find the answer here :slight_smile:

Franks’ isn’t strictly-speaking a GA Parka - the absence of little German flags on the shoulders are a giveaway. Generically, I think GA Parkas are a kind of fish-tail parka, and otherwise also erroneously known as the “anorak” of train-spotter derisive fame. GA ones are easy to find (I’ve had a couple here in SA), and otherwise the US M-51 is a classic (but note the fur hood lining, again not Frank’s parka).
