The best bad weather jacket ever made. These are fresh the fresh PCS type, and used.

The latest issue Windproof Smock, the PCS model has taken a huge leap in making the already superior WP smock even better! Lots of fine new features, high quality manufacture and everything, honestly one of the best jackets there is!

For those not familiar with the concept of the British Windproof Smock, it's basically a roomy, windproof (!), somewhat water repellent top layer which is meant to take the main punishment in whatever you are doing. After its original introduction in WW2 the WP smock has gone through lots of changes, with the main idea still the same. Now the new PCS smock has raised the bar another notch with many improvements over the earlier CS95 model:

Features

• Zipper closure with velcro strips to cover it.
• A roomy hood with drawcord & wire adjustment. Can be rolled out of the way.
• Ventilation zippers in the armpits.
• Four large front bellows pockets with the typical folding mouths to keep your stuff in. The large Canadian type buttons are hidden under the flaps. Behind the hem pockets you'll find fleece-lined handwarmer pockets.
• A zippered vertical pocket on both sides of the chest. Lined with mesh, so these can be opened for additional ventilation.
• Sleeve pockets with velcro velcro bases for patches & insignia.
• Drawcord tightening in the waist and hem, velcro adjustment on the sleeve cuffs.

Made of 50/50% polycotton. Wash in 60 degrees celsius. The fabric is naturally windproof and has some water repellent treatment, but this certainly is not a rain coat. The labels say you can rejuvenate the treatment simply by ironing the parka, however these being used to various degrees it's probably not there anymore.

Size info

• Sizes according to user's height & chest circumference in centimeters.
• The cut is roomy, because you must be able to fit a lot of stuff underneath. If your parka seems a bit too large, just use the good adjustments and it'll look just fine.
• If you're even one centimeter taller than 185 cm, upsize a notch so the shoulder seams will lower a bit, adding length to the sleeves.
• The model in the picture is 175 cm tall with about 95 cm chest circumference, and is wearing size 170-185 / 92-100 cm parka with a softie jacket underneath.

Condition

In used but serviceable condition, with the usual signs of wear like faded fabric, maybe a stain somewhere, a missing cord here or there but overall these are quite nice.
