Well done !!! That is an outstanding job you have done there. :eusa_clap

That would be a very commercially popular design.

If you ever plan to make more, please put me on the list for an XL ! I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

Again, outstanding job :eusa_clap

That truly is an outstanding anorak, Costin Moga.
The L24 ventile is excellent fabric for building an anorak.
I have a New Zealand dpm camo smock in single layer L24 ventile, and I can assure you it is absolute waterproof. In summer, sometimes too hot...
Your anorak looks great. I like the idea of the repro buttons, though buttons of original Gebirgsjäger anoraks were made of glass of pressed paper. (But you did your research so you knew this already ).
Again congratulations and enjoy wearing it in good health.
Andy

Hello everybody in my first post and please forgive me for my bad english (im spanish).

First:

Backpack: correct!. The backpack is the classic swiss army backpack in the second part of the film (the escape). In his first travel seems to be a Alice backpack. In the train station he wears a classic alpine wool sweather like this.

Here i go with the parka: I think you could modify a cheap swedish army smock like this:

Could be easy to change the position of the pockets and to dry him in cofee or sand color.

closest thing i've found

So, I did a little bit of search through the internet. Seems anoraks and smocks are not very popular in the US. Closest thing I could find was this

Anybody in the US have more luck? (the orvis one is like $150!!)

ANorak in the US

BShee,

I just got 2 of these:

They seem to be brand new, and if you do a search on this forum and the rest of the web you can see how people have modified them.

The Anorak i use most here in Alaska is a pretty well made Anorak. Thick cotton material breaks the wind. Room pockets I stuff full of kit.. I like the old look it has. Its actually American Eagle manufactured but basically retro in nature. I still have to replace the velcro with button fasteners though..

This is a pretty darn close modern equivalent for the Anorak jacket Pitt wears.

you can purchase it here.

^^^In my opinion, other than the fact that this is an anorak, it has virtually nothing in common with the one Pitt wore. It does look like a nice one, though.

Does anyone know of a place that sells a vintage looking Anorak, something like the ones worn by Brad Pitt in "Seven Years In Tibet" ? I watched it recently and have had that look on my mind ever sence. I'm actually interested in the woven head gear too that's worn with the anorak, if anyone knows anything about it. Shoot I guess any and all the gear that Pitt (in particular) wears in the mountain is of interest to me...boots,etc. I think the backpack is probably a Swiss rucksack.

Hawkwood Mercantile sells similar looking anoraks.

SJC have sampled something along these lines, but I don't know if / when Simon has plans to release it - they're doing a lot of newstuff currently.
