1964 US AIR FORCE N-3B PARKA JACKET

The N-3B parka was born from its predecessor, the N3, in 1958 for U.S. aircrews stationed in extremely cold climates. It was often called the ‘Snorkel Parka’, as airmen could zip it closed past their noses, leaving just a small hole to see out of, like a snorkel.

Four pocket design, interior drawstrings makes the waist adjustable, pockets are large and lined for warmth and easy access, raglan sleeves ease movement and the hood is deep, keeping biting wind at bay. Small tool pocket with zip close in left arm. Conmar zippers.

Materials shell nylon, inner lining wool and cotton. Leather details on strings, pockets and zippers. Animal fur lined hood.

Has small wear and marks.
