If you seek a military-style jacket that can protect you against the
harshest of winter conditions, look no further than the N-2B flight
jacket. This short waist parka is meant to withstand sub-freezing
weather, with its 100% water repellent nylon shell and polyester
interlining. Unique 'pass through' front pocket was created for pilots
to have the ability to reach into their pants pockets without subjecting
their hands to sub-freezing temps. For extra protection, the hood is
lined and trimmed with synthetic mouton fur. This dry clean only N-2B
parka features a zip-down hood, and knit cuffs/waistband. • Our
toasty N-2B parka offers serious protection against freezing
temperatures with a synthetic fur hood, water repellent, 100% nylon
shell and polyester interlining, in addition to the knit waistband and
cuffs • The N-2B flight jacket is versatile — unzip the hood so it lies flat against your shoulder and back if you are less cold

Product details:
The N-2B parka was introduced in the mid 1950s for U.S. Air Force air
and ground crews. It replaced the N-2A. Alpha started making the N-2B
for the DOD in 1963. Some of the classic mil-spec features were the
front pass-through pockets (so that pilots could reach their pants
pockets without being exposed to sub-freezing temps), split hood that
unzips to lay flat, and the zippered utility/pencil pocket (originally
called the cigarette/pencil pocket) with pencil point protectors. We
went on to make the N-2B parka for the U.S. armed forces for the next 33
years. In the late 1980s we started making the same short-waist parka
for the commercial market. It maintains the features from the military
version.
