US Surplus Gore-tex Parka (large/long)

US Surplus Gore-tex Parka (large/long) REDUCED

I have a US woodland Gore-Tex Parka for sale.
The US woodland pattern is nicer than ours or the Dutch one and they are meant to be the best Parkas out there.
It is in a size Large/Long and would suit someone up to 6' tall with maybe a 40" chest (approx)
Its made by Alpha Industries and is in excellent, unmarked condition, not far off of being new.
These Parkas have a hood with peak, a snow skirt to stop draughts, zips under sleeves for ventilation, two large front pockets and 2 internal hidden middle pockets.
They cost about £75 - £80 in the Surplus shops if you can find one but this one is slightly too small so I need to sell it and get a larger one.
You are more than welcome to come and try it on if you are local (somerset)
I am offering it for £47 posted if anyone is interested.
Cheers,
Rob.

Here is the description from the net if it helps.

U.S Army Surplus ECWCS Woodland Camo Gortex Jacket
Genuine US Army Surplus government issue
Used Grade1 but very good condition.
Simply, the Rolls Royce of military gortex jackets, there is none better, fullstop. Part of the U.S. forces E.C.W.C.S (Extended Cold Weather Clothing System).
Superb quality and an item now copied by other forces.The jacket has a host of features including, main zip-fastening with a stud -fastening storm flap underneath which are 2 velcro-closing breast pockets. There are 2 flap-covered side pockets as well as under-arm zip vents, 'pit zips'. It also has a nylon inner lining as well as an elasticated snow skirt.
This is the best military goretex jacket you can buy and would best most commercial goretex jackets. These jackets can be bought new from Alpha commercial, at over £300!
Please note that there are many cheap copies of this jacket around, most of which are barely shower proof. This is a US government issued jacket meaning that it is made from genuine Goretex material with genuine Gore Seam taped internal joins.
