Description
The German navy, known in Deutschland as the marine, is part of the unified armed forces, or Bundeswehr. The German navy finds its roots with the Reichsflotte, or Empire fleet. This was the first navy to exist under the tricolor flag and was established in 1848 during the March Revolution. Today, the German navy is a permanent participant in all four NATO Maritime Groups and is involved in several anti-terrorist operations.
The full-zip closure provides for easy on and off while the snap fasteners at the cuff make adjustments quick and simple and ensure that undesired elements are kept at bay. In addition to two slash pockets at the waist, the jacket includes two large zippered pockets on each side of the chest. Additionally, there are mesh vents sewn into each underarm to allow the escape of body heat, which serves to keep you dry and comfortable all day long. And just to add a bit of class, each shoulder is adorned with a fancy epaulet, under which the tricolor German flag resides.

Great value or giftBought the Gr 10 (5'5-5'9, chest 43", US XL). Stylish, pockets are great, and on the whole it's a good fit. A little snug for me (5'11, 160 pounds), but it's good motivation to start jogging again. My girlfriend fits in it a little better than me so no complaints.

Waaay too small!!Like another reviewer, the sizes are really off! I ordered an XL as well. I'm of average build, but I'm going to assume that the men of Germany are roughly 5'5 with abnormally shorr arms and waists that would make a size 2 Victorian woman in a corset look fat! Nice jacket though. Maybe if a travelling carnival comes through town and the emaciated thin man needs a jacket, I can donate it to him.

Sizing way off,Ordered what was supposed to be an XL (Gr. 10) but I can barely get my arms into the sleeves and zipping it up is not remotely possible. A real dud, except the price is so low that I am basically out a can of soda. Would have been a great jacket if the sizing had been right.

Nice jacket and CHEAPMake sure to do a little research on german sizing and you'll have a wonderful jacket! The high collar will keep out the wind, especially when coupled with a scarf! I wear mine with a shemagh and have no problems in fall weather. Great for layering!

Bought another one againBecause I like it so much, gave one to my brother-in-law. Ordered another, it seems never been used in very new condition. Love it.
