With respect to everyone, the fact is that in any given decade there would have been dozens, perhaps hundreds of different parkas available for sale to civilians, so absent any clear badges or logos, or any specific historical information, high-res photos, or unique design features, it's nearly impossible to identify specific clothing items and/or to assign them to specific brands. Even today it would be difficult, if a logo wasn't visible.

I would like to recreate his parka look, in my opinion it looks really cool, very minimalist but I am getting expedition vibe from it. What brand or type of parka should bring me closest to his one?
