A parka is the jacket you reach for when the weather gets really cold and wet. It's longer than a normal jacket, so it covers your hips and thighs and keeps the cold off your lower back. Our men's parkas combine that extra length with waterproof, windproof fabric, warm insulation and a hood that protects you when the wind picks up. Choose a warm insulated parka for freezing days, a down parka for extreme cold, or a lighter shell parka for wet autumn and spring weather.
Why RevolutionRace men's parkas?
Weather protection you can trust: Most of our parkas have a waterproof, breathable membrane, sealed seams and a water-repellent finish. They keep out rain, sleet and wet snow, and they block strong wind.
Warmth for your kind of winter: Choose synthetic insulation that stays warm even when damp and is easy to care for, or certified down for maximum warmth at a low weight. Every insulated parka has a warmth rating, from mild winter days to deep sub-zero cold.
A hood that does the job: Every parka has an adjustable hood. Depending on the style, it can be detachable, have a reinforced brim against rain and snow, have a removable trim, or fit over a helmet.
Pockets for everything: Our parkas have from five to more than ten pockets, including fleece-lined hand pockets, inner pockets and a hidden chest pocket under the storm flap. Your phone, keys and gloves always have a place.
Small details, big comfort: Hand gaiters inside the cuffs stop cold air from getting up your sleeves, and fleece-lined collars keep your neck warm. A two-way zip lets you open the bottom of the parka, so walking and sitting down are easier. Most styles are mainly made from recycled materials.
Frequently asked questions
A parka is a long jacket with a hood, usually with insulation inside. The main difference from a normal jacket is the length. A parka covers your hips and often your thighs, which keeps you warmer and stops cold air from reaching your lower back when you bend down. That makes it a great choice for cold commutes, winter walks and long hours outside.
Most of them are. Our waterproof parkas have a membrane that keeps rain and wet snow out, sealed seams and a water-repellent finish. Some styles are built for heavy, lasting rain, and others handle showers and wet snow. Our down parka is water-repellent rather than waterproof. It's made for very cold, dry conditions, or for wearing over a shell jacket. Each product page shows its water resistance rating, so you can choose the right level for your weather.
It depends on how you'll use it. A hip-length parka gives you more freedom to move and works well for everyday wear and active days. A long, thigh-length parka gives you the most warmth and coverage, which is ideal for cold walks, waiting outside or standing still for a long time. If you're not used to a long parka, the length can feel unusual at first. Many of our customers say they soon don't want to be without it. A two-way zip and side zips on selected styles make walking easier.
