Fishtail Parka

One of the most popular winter jackets in our collection is the fishtail parka. There is an interesting history behind this model of parka. Most importantly: throughout its history the fishtail parka has never lost its popularity.

What Is a Fishtail Parka?

A fishtail parka is a long coat with a hood and a split in the back which can be fastened. The name 'fishtail' comes from this split in the back. The two flaps can usually be tied together with a drawstring. The use of the parka as a winter coat originates in Russia and has travelled through Alaska to the US, and from there to the rest of the world. The fact that parkas are very popular winter coats in the world's coldest regions really tells you all need to know about this coat's ability to keep you warm in the winter time.

Originally parkas were made out of fur. These days, most parkas are made out of synthetic materials rather than fur or leather. Because of this the coats are very durable, water-repellent and breathable. A parka made out of synthetic materials will stay fresh for a long time. Currently olive drab parkas are very popular, which fits well with the history of this type of winter jacket . The fishtail parka – just like the trench coat – was originally used by the military. Other dark colours, like black and dark blue, are also common today.

The Ideal Wintercoat for Women

The parka is a wonderful coat to wear in the winter months. Women's parkas cover a big part of the body because of their length and because they always have a hood. The fishtail parka allows for extra freedom of movement due to the split in the back. Fishtail parkas are generally not waisted. For women, a parka goes together well with skinny jeans. This creates a beautiful contrast between the width of the coat and the tightness of the jeans.

Fishtail parkas have a simple design: a straight coat that extends down to the thighs and an attached hood. Yet we do have different parka models in our product range. We offer parkas with single or double pockets (this means a total of two or four pockets). We also offer fishtail parkas with a double zip. This makes your outfit appear to be multilayered, which is a nice effect. Our parkas are available in various colours.

At Airforce we love clothes that radiate vigour and quality. That means the parka cannot be left out of our collection. With its history on the North Pole and in the military the parka has proven itself as a good and practical design. At Airforce , we like to combine our designs with the latest trends in winter fashion to create beautiful and stylish fishtails parkas that will last for years. With our high-quality winter coats , you will never be left out in the cold.
