Does anyone have any experience with German camo parkas?
I've found a few of them online that are ex issue for as little as $30.
Should I cop?

When I got mine, I was a little disappointed because I thought I couldn't pull it off. It's a nice jacket, but I think flecktarn looks busy in person.

There are actually two types of the Bundeswehr parkas, one has the 90's flecktarn pattern which has a slight colour variation to the current one.

The only thing I find annoying about mine is that there is no drawstring at the bottom, how it works is the zip goes from under the chin down to around the belly button, and there are snap-buttons going down to the bottom from then on. I'd definitely size down next time. Also there are fucking pockets everywhere and two small 10cm zips under each arm to vent underarm heat, I presume.

just an fyi people be concious of the difference between the jackets and the shirts. The shirts are more like a tunic, and don't have a hood. The jackets are just a thicker version of the material, and they have a hood. I see people posting links for shirts and using terminology like they are the jackets, so just be careful.

Also, the jackets are not waterproof unless you get one of the special goretex ones. These jackets are kinda heavy as it is and they really do suck up the rain
