Engineered for extreme conditions, the Expedition Parka was first developed in the 1980s to support scientists stationed at Antarctica’s McMurdo Station. Today, it continues to deliver field-proven performance—annually tested by the National Science Foundation’s Polar Research division—whether navigating icy city streets or traversing remote glacial terrain. Constructed from Recycled Organic Arctic Tech®, this heritage-inspired fabric ensures uncompromising protection in severe cold.
