It's a fucking coat you autist what more information do you want?
It offers nothing a modern jacket doesn't unless you wanna LARP.
>>34269556
Soviet winter coats are comfy, I prefer telogreika though
>>34269556
it's comfy and well-made, chicks dig the fuzzy collar. What more do you want to know?
>>34270117
How well does it do with moisture? I imagine since it's a winter coat, it'd do ok but with age you never know
>>34270483
It do horrible under humid conditions.
Is the only place to get them eBay? Just want to know if there's any other sites to find them at.

I admire your bravery. Do you wear it in public?
>>34270086
ACTUAL winter coats are both comfy and stylish.

They sometimes pop up on akfiles, I bought mine from there. Mine was still tied up and had chalk marks on it.

I got a Soviet paratroopers jacket of the same build. It is thick as fuck and very soft and well built, so no doubt that it is a good jacket. But it came to me smelling like death, a smell that persists today. It is heavy and thick and is less than practical to wear unless you just want to collect. I have worn mine in some of the rougher snow and it is perfect. Mobility is limited, but it is so warm like wearing a whole sheep.
For that price with the pants, do it.
>had a pic, lost to the ether have this instead
So since this is a slavshit thread, should I buy one of the $50 vostok watches on amazon? They seem neat and I need a beater watch + the history and style of them is pretty nice.
>>34271155
Yes, why wouldn't I, I got one to keep me warm when it gets cold
>>34272746
Does anyone say anything? Its something I would notice and if not talk directly to you about it I would talk about you behind your back and point.
>>34272757
No one has ever said anything about it to me
Bought one last winter. It keeps ya very warn and even has a pocket for a makarov. But it took like 2 months to get to me and came in a potato sack.
