Does anyone have an idea of the manufacturer? Too small for me and looks like rats have been at the lining but reminiscent of the Hercules/Appalachians with the front map pockets and I always liked them (and if anyone is looking to offload one of those, I'm all ears)

$300 www.ebay.com/itm/406452997924

Appalachians is correct. That’s their unique crosszip design. Attractions did a repro of this style. I’m not a fan, but I recognize it when I see it.

Much appreciated. I hadn't seen this newer variation before.

I owned this same jacket with a 50s Montgomery Ward Windward label. The map pocket Appalachian is a favorite. They show up, but have not seen one recently.

I'm not sure if Appalachian made this style with no map pocket. They were still making the map pocket style into the 1960s.

Thanks @tmitchell59, appreciate it. There was a nice Hercules version going in Japan recently but $660 + tariffs was a bit much for me unfortunately. Will keep an eye out though.
