The jacket is really great, size M for 1.8m height and 83kg weight fits perfectly (with a jumper). The only slightly surprising thing is that the hood is not removable; you can only detach the fur from the hood.
Alpha Industries N3B VF 59 Fitted Jacket - Replica Blue
Mid-thigh length winter jacket in Replica Blue, equipped with a deep hood with the option to detach the synthetic fur. Jackets from the VF (Vintage Fit) line stand out with a modified cut that is narrower than in classic Alpha Industries models.

Durable outer material, nylon lining
The outer layer is made of wind- and moisture-resistant nylon. The interior consists of a nylon lining and polyester insulation, ensuring proper insulation and thermal comfort on cold days.
Main closure, thermal flap
The central closure is a zipper, covered by an external thermal flap fastened with large buttons, allowing easy handling even with thick gloves.
6 spacious pockets
The model is equipped with 6 functional pockets:
- two deep, insulated chest pockets with snap closures
- two waist-level pockets with flaps and snap closures
- a flight pocket on the left sleeve with a zipper and the signature "Remove Before Flight" tag

Deep hood
Instead of a traditional collar, the jacket features a built-in hood with detachable synthetic fur trim that effectively protects the neck.
Elastic cuffs, internal waistband
Hidden elastic cuffs in the sleeves protect the hands from cold and wind. An internal waistband provides additional protection against cold.

I really like these jackets. I've owned an Alpha N3-B parka in sage green for the past eight years and have worn it at every opportunity. It is warm, super comfortable and I wear it open in the warmer weather to being fully zipped and buttoned with the hood up in the colder weather. I like all the pockets for my personal effects. I fancied one in black from Military eu and my new addition is great and has not disappointed, it is lovely and I'm really pleased. These jackets give years of good service and It arrived a week after ordering which is great service.

The jacket arrived a week after ordering. Original. I wore a similar jacket (model n3b slim fit) for more than 10 years. For a height of 180 cm and a weight of 75 kg, size M is just right, even with some room to spare. L will be really big (I've tried it, I know). The only thing is that I placed the order by phone, because the website does not allow you to place an order!

I won't go into detail about all the advantages of this jacket, but it's enough to mention that when I asked my husband how old his jacket is, he replied: "forever" – and he's already 55 years old. Five years ago he gave me a winter jacket in ecru for my birthday; it was very warm. Unfortunately, I made a mistake and washed it in the washing machine at 30°C, which caused the leather elements to stain the fabric. I contacted various companies to see if it could be dyed black or navy, but no one wanted to take on the task. With a heavy heart, I had to get rid of it. Just a warning.
-
The jacket is quite warm and practical, delivery was fast, but I expected better quality. After two weeks of wearing, a couple of buttons fell off and the seam on the hood came apart, it was poorly stitched. The fabric is also not very durable. The quality used to be much better.
-
The jacket is very warm and well made. The high fur at the neck protects so well that you don't need a scarf or snood anymore. Keep in mind that the fit is quite snug, so it's worth considering this when choosing the size.
-
Both the jacket and customer service are top notch. The jacket is lightweight, very warm and well made – good quality comes at a price. I recommend it.
-
An excellent jacket, very comfortable, warm and solidly made. It looks much better in person than on internet photos. I am 182 cm tall and size "L" is perfect.
-
Great jacket with fur that insulates very well from the cold, which means you don't lose warmth and you can go for long walks without a problem.
-
I've been using the N3B model for years. I liked the slim version more than the regular one, as it's not as wide. It worked excellently in autumn and winter conditions. Top quality – I recommend it.
-
Very nice, well-fitted jacket. However, when it's freezing, you need to dress warmly – the outer material lets a lot of cold through, so it's not as warm as some reviews suggest.
-
This is the warmest jacket I've ever owned.
-
The best Alpha Industries jacket – warm, windproof, with large pockets that fit everything you need.
-
My measurements: chest 114 cm, waist 104 cm, height 196 cm. I chose size XL and the jacket fits perfectly. I can easily wear a thicker sweatshirt or fleece underneath, and it doesn't restrict my movements. It lacks nothing – great product, I recommend it.
-
The jacket is very warm, comfortable and well sewn. It's just a pity the price is a bit high.
