A weather-resistant workhorse, cut from an iconic cloth
From mariners to the military, the parka has earned its stripes as one of the most weather-ready designs ever created. Our Waxed Parka goes back to what made early renditions so rugged, with a dose of modern comfort. It starts with a lightweight, waxed-cotton ripstop shell from Halley Stevensons—the legendary Scottish mill that’s been crafting the fabric since 1864. Underneath is where you’ll find Primaloft® Eco Black insulation for warmth without the bulk. Wind, rain, sleet, or snow—this is hardwearing protection from the elements at its best.

How to Measure
- Chest: Measure straight across from edge to edge, starting 1" below the armhole, multiply by 2
- Body Length: Start at the top of the shoulder where it meets the neck seam, and measure straight down to the hem
- Sleeve Length: Start at the center of the back of the neck, measure straight across to the shoulder seam, and then follow the edge of the garment to the cuff. Pro tip: it’s easiest to measure across the back of the sleeve
Remove extra dirt, sponge down with cold water, do not machine wash, do not use soap/detergents, do not tumble dry, do not iron, do not dry clean
