The French Microporous Parka is a heavy duty parka that is suitable for cold weather climates. With the button in fleece liner, the French Army has used this parka as their standard issue parka for exercises as far north as the Arctic Circle. This means no matter where you are in North America, including Alaska, this parka is designed and built to keep you warm during the Winter months.

With an exterior shell made from a Gore-Tex like material, this parka resists water easily yet remains breathable for comfort. There are ventilation holes in the arm pit area of both sleeves to allow your body to better regulate your internal temperature while wearing this parka. This is important so that as your body sweats that excess moisture from your body can be controlled. You will be more comfortable, drier, and more warm due to this feature on the parka. There are relief ports in the hood where your ears would be located to help make it easier to work outside in a team with the small ports being just big enough to allow sound waves in but keep out the cold due to the nature of their design.

With each parka there is an included button in fleece liner that will provide additional warmth. When you are outside in temperatures that do not require the fleece liner, it is easy to remove making this parka more of a three season parka. With the liner removed this parka makes a great outdoor parka for the fall or rainy season as the water resistant exterior is superior to virtually all other similar parkas. There are also three large exterior pockets including one on the sleeve that make transporting your essentials easy and best of all the parka will keep them safe and dry.
