The Byrd Cloth Parka is inspired by the U.S. Naval Antarctic Expedition from 1939-1941.
The expedition was led by Admiral Richard Evelyn Byrd, an officer in the Navy and Antarctic explorer. This was the first expedition sponsored by the U.S. government and Woolrich was chosen as the supplier of woolen items.

In the 1930s Admiral E. Richard Byrd developed the fabric, which, due to the density of its structure alone, is water-repellent and windproof. This Parka made from Byrd Cloth is a homage to the reliable functionality of the Woolrich classic.
Available only in this nice green/grayish color.
