USAF Type N-3B Snorkel Parka (XX-Small) – New

The N-3B Snorkel Parka is the U.S. Military’s definitive solution for extreme cold weather protection. Originally engineered for Air Force flight crews and ground personnel stationed in Arctic environments, this parka is rated for "heavy-duty" use in sub-zero temperatures. The XX-Small size is a rare find in unissued condition, offering a precision fit for smaller frames while maintaining the full insulation loft of its larger counterparts.

Constructed with a windproof and water-resistant outer shell, the N-3B features a thick polyester fiberfill insulation that traps body heat even in stationary positions. The iconic "Snorkel" hood zips up past the nose, creating a tunnel of warm air to protect the face from frostbite and high-velocity winds. In New (unissued) condition, this parka retains its original factory finish, crisp hardware, and full synthetic fur trim, making it a premium choice for extreme winter survival or heritage military collections.
