It was introduced in 1965 and was worn until the 1990s. The biggest difference from its predecessor, the M 51, is the buttoned hood and nylon lining. It has been a cult jacket since the 1960s, worn by the Mods in England as protection against the elements over their expensive suits. They were called "Fishtail" because their back part is longer than the front, making their silhouette look like that of a fish.
*Please note that the original parkas are very large, this is because they were designed to be worn over full combat gear.
