I'm 188 cm tall, weigh 103 kg, and my chest is about 125-130 cm. Size XL fits me perfectly. I received a jacket in the "camel" colour, even though I ordered "coyote". I kept it because I actually liked this shade more. I rated it lower for the quality of the stitching – it looks as if someone sewed it after drinking. There are lots of loose threads and the seams are uneven. The jacket is better suited for temperatures above zero, so I'm not surprised that during the Korean War, Americans often felt cold.
Brandit US M51 Parka Jacket with Removable Liner - Olive
Long parka in Olive with a removable liner, made from a durable cotton and nylon blend. Characteristic rear slit, known as a fishtail, modelled on the popular M51 model worn by American soldiers.
Removable liner for improved thermal comfort
The jacket is designed with an additional layer of insulation in the form of a thermal removable liner, made 100% from durable nylon and filled with polyester padding. The liner also includes sleeves and is attached to the jacket with buttons at the collar and sleeves.
Four spacious pockets and hood
The jacket includes a large adjustable hood and four roomy pockets. Two of them, in the Napoleon style, located at waist level, are fastened with strong snaps, allowing for the secure storage of essential everyday items. The other two, sewn on the hips with fleece lining, ensure the ability to store and warm hands during cold days.
Zip with strip, drawstring, and adjustable cuffs
The US M51 model fastens with a zip protected by an external strip fastened with snaps. The drawstring at the waist and adjustable cuffs provide protection against wind and cold.

The M51 US army parka is a fantastic piece of kit and is true to size. Love the removeable liner and tight cuffs. My only complaint is the zipper is very stiff. Overall very satisfied if the zip was sorted.

The combination of traditional style and an affordable price is a very good choice. The jacket is well made, comfortable and functional. Ideal for colder, autumn days. I definitely recommend it.

A very helpful and functional product, I waited a long time for the opportunity to buy it. A wide selection of clothes and equipment, as well as a large range of high-quality branded products. Attractive discounts. I recommended your site, and several people in my circle have already shared their opinions.

The jacket is made from quite good materials, it's spacious, but the lining is very thin and doesn't resemble that of a real parka. It might be suitable for temperatures up to 5 degrees, but it's not suitable for wind or snow unless you plan to wear another jacket underneath.
