The parka made its first appearance in 1851. The Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen was the first man to reach the North Pole. His feat was made possible by his preparation in terms of logistics and clothing: skis, dogs and a men's parka made of sealskin and fur. Other explorers have died of cold because they lacked a warm enough jacket. The concept of the over-jacket was later taken up by the American airmen of the Second World War. Indeed, faced with very low temperatures, they were equipped with a jacket strongly resembling a parka. The famous US parkas - M51 or "Fishtail", as its back ended in a fishtail, were produced in large quantities and fuelled the spread of the parka. But it was from the 1970s onwards with the British youth that parkas became a fashion item in their own right.
