"Just a quick email to say a big Thankyou for getting the parka here so quickly for a birthday present, after chatting on the phone. Fantastic looking piece of kit and a brilliant service from you.! Well done and thanks again, he's going to be well chuffed."
All the best, Rob Holgate UK
"Thrilled, Spectacular, Awesome"
"Thank you for all your help with finding me an original M-1951 Parka. The package arrived today much sooner than expected (only took three days to cross the pond). When I opened the box, I was thrilled. As describe, the parka and liner were in near unissued condition. In fact, they were spectacular! The Wolf fur on the detachable hood is awesome and really adds character to the parka. Please tell your refurbished they did one heck of a job. Finally, the advice you gave me regarding sizing was spot on and the parka fits exactly as desired."
Scott, Connecticut, USA
"Brilliant"
Received my M-1951 Parka today.It fits perfectly for my requirements, i.e. to wear it over my business suit, to commute to work on my Scoot, just as we discussed and you promised.
It was more than I wanted to pay originally, but for a piece of history, born around the same time as me, it is worth every penny, and indeed more, (which I never ever admit)
Putting it on transports me to a different time and place, the fondly remembered past, recapturing some of my happy adolescent memories.
My wife will kill me for spending our hard earned, but , I can tell you, it is worth it. "Brilliant"
Thanks

Here is what the many customers of
fishtailparkas.com say about about
our service and the parkas they have
received....:)
Hello Kane,
Just to say hello from Geneva in Switzerland where my Parka is keeping me really warm these chilly mornings. It really is excellent and the fit is perfect.
What can I say that others haven’t already?. If you want the best with lashings of good advice and service second to none, Kane is your man.
Thanks again Kane.
Cheers,
Martin,
Geneva, Switzerland.
"Hey
Kane,
I just recieved my parka yesterday
and it fits great and looks much
better than I could have ever
anticipated. The wolf fur complements
the rest of the parka amazingly.
I was surprised when it arrived,
I was expecting it to come in
at the maximum amount of days
allowed. But here it was across
"the big pond" much
sooner then I expected. I already
recommended you to a friend, and
would recommend you to so many
more. Thanks for a great product,
and an ever greater service. My
M65 looks amazing."

"Hi
Kane,
My M-51 parka arrived today and
it's absolutely gorgeous. It's
even better than I thought it
would be and the colour and condition
are fantastic. As you predicted,
the fit is perfect. I can't believe
the difference compared with my
M65 - they're just not in the
same league. When you consider
that an M65 is probably one of
the best quality and best value
coats money can buy, I think that's
praise indeed. Like I said before,
I've waited 20 years to get my
hands on a good M51 and it certainly
doesn't disappoint. Thanks so
much for sorting me out with such
an incredibly rare and high quality
parka, and for making the whole
selection and purchase process
such a pleasure.
You're a top bloke! Thanks again."

"Hi
Kane, received the M51 today
as promised. Fits great and
is even better then my M65.
I have been checking out your
site now for several years and
I'm glad I decided to use you
as I cannot imagine getting
the same service and product
anywhere else.
Anyone reading these testimonials
should look no further. Kane
is your man."
Ian Reid, Essex, UK
"Hiya
Kane,
the postman came today at 12.30
with the parka I ordered only
2 days ago. I am over the moon
with quality of the parka and
with the service you provide.
Thank you very much. I will send
a few pics later on. Once again,
many thanks."

"Dear
all
just a quick email to let
you know my m65 parka arrived
today.I am really pleased with
it and i,m so glad i went for
the wolf fur hood, it looks
amazing !!
Thanks"
Brian

"Hi Kane,
My
parka arrived yesterday.....i'm
absolutely stoked beyond any
sensible reasoning!!! and the
wolf fur hood looks the nuts.....to
say the least!!!....and fits
perfectly.
Thanks, I'm
so pleased.....if you hav'nt
already guessed....also, thanks
for all your help with getting
it ordered i.e the right size
etc and getting it to me in
perfect condition.
Thanks again."

"Hi
Kane, the M65 I ordered arrived
today with it's re-trimmed wolf
fur hood. It is the business mate,
thank you very much. The coat
is obviously un-issued and is
just what I wanted.
It
feels about -300 degrees today
so it couldn't have come at
a better time. I noticed in
the shops recently that Lambretta
are doing a parka in their "The
Who" range for about £140.
I just hope
people buy the real thing, as
for an extra £29 I've
got a fur trimmed M65 that's
far superior and it's authentic.
It will look the business riding
my 1963 Li and I will spread
the word to my mates about your
business.
The coat
is spot on, thanks for the quick
service,
All the best"

Hi
Kane,
"Thanks for
being so prompt. The parka arrived
this afternoon and I tried it
on for size this evening. It is
brilliant and just what I wanted.
I will certainly recommend you
to the people that I meet in our
local scooter club and Soul nights.
Hopefully you can get some more
orders in the bag."
Once again thankyou.
Garry Wagstaff Barnsley UK
"I
bought a parka a lot of years
ago in England, then I lost
it when I changed my home; It's
very difficult to find in Italy
this item so I went on Web and
I saw Kane's site; I sent an
email and it was very simple:
order, payment, shipping in
Italy, everything was good.
Service was great, Kane very
kind and the Parka M65 is very
beautiful, in mint condition.
I'm very happy again, it's an
essential garment for me. Thanks
a lot again"
kind regards

Hello
there Kane,
I
received my Parka today 31st
Oct 2006 and let me tell you
something mate i am so happy
with it you wouldn`t believe
it. I never expected it to be
as half as good as it is especially
being over 50 years old and
used. 3 words to sum this up
(VALUE, QUALITY, FRIENDLINESS)
I have never met you, only spoke
on the phone briefly but yet
i feel as if i have known you
for years.
If anyone
out there is considering buying
an original parka go no further
than this guy Kane. TOP BLOKE.
Kindest Regards
Scott Smart From Aberdeen.
I
searched the internet for a
fishtail parka and came accross
fishtailparkas.com. I couldn't
believe there was actually a
site dedicated to genuine US
fishtail parkas.
I contacted Kane and a very
efficient process began. We
discussed my requirements which
had to be an M51 and Kane sourced
my parka and sent photos.
Payment was very simple and
within one day from ordering
it I received it. Opening the
box bought back so many memories
as the smell of these parkas
is distinctive, having worn
one for years as a MOD in the
late seventies / mid-eighties.
Its not very often these days
you get customer service which
is excellent and Kane's service
is definately that.
I would have no hesitation in
recommending your business to
any would be buyer....
Regards
Dean Jordan, Belfast
Hi
Kane,
I don’t
know if I said anything…but
the parka is perfect. Thanks
!!!
You have delivered a fantastic
product – the parka is
exactly as advertised, effectively
brand new, and just what I’d
hoped for. The first one that
arrived was too small, but the
returns process works perfectly.
Would definitely recommend you
to anyone.
John Ginn,
Surrey, UK
"Dear
Kane,
Thank you
for a truly brilliant original
parka even better that the one
I had in the 80’s,I couldn’t
believe how good the condition
of it was especially for it
age.
The whole experience of buying
the parka from start to finish
was easy, simple and a joy unlike
most other site you use on the
web.
Thanks again and keep up the
great work.
Andy Harding."

The Web site is brilliant. PPS Please see the

"Hi
Kane,
Just dropping you a line to say
thanks really. I received my M51
today and as predicted, it's perfect.
I couldn't be happier mate. If
it had been tailor made for me
it wouldn't fit any better. Even
my girlfriend was suitably impressed
by how cool this looked and that's
high praise indeed mate :o)
The condition of the parka is
fantastic. I can't believe how
well it's kept it's color and
It's really hard to believe that
this thing is an antique.
Yeah the parka cost a few quid,
but to buy a jacket of this quality
from a high street shop would
probably have cost about £500
quid (at least). I'm just glad
I opted for an M51 from you instead
of spending a fortune on something
by Prada or Armani that wouldn't
have come remotely close to having
the strength, style or history
that this thing has. I just can't
wait to get out on my Lambretta
now (as requested, I'll send you
a few pics of me on the Lammy
with the parka).
Thanks for all your help and understanding
when the first one didn't fit.
It took a couple of efforts but
we definitely got there in the
end.
All the best mate."
Martin

"Hi
Kane,
The man from Del Monte he say
YEAH, it fits...
He is well chuffed, he says
it's excellent, he also can't
believe what good condition
it's in!
We shall certainly recommend
you as i'm sure he will get
quizzed over it at the scooter
club.
I will also put the word around
about your new line in suits..
Thank you so much and it's been
great doing business with you.
Kindest regards"
Debbie White, Hook,

"Hi
Kane
The parka looks stunning! I can't
thank you enough for the time
and trouble you have taken to
get it looking how I want.
I would like to take this opportunity
to thank you for giving me such
excellent customer service in
supplying me with a parka exactly
to my specifications.
When I contacted you with what
I thought would be an impossible
task, I was thrilled that not
only could you meet my specifications
but could offer me guidance on
securing the best deal. At every
point in our dealings you firmly
had my interests at heart, the
service was professional yet friendly
something that I value very highly.
At last I now have a coat that
for a long time I had wanted but
always thought impossoble to get
hold of and it is all thanks to
Fishtailparkas.com. I would not
hesitate on recommending this
company.
Many, many thanks Kane"

"Received
my parka today. I'm more than
happy with it - it's twice as
nice as the one I used to own
back in the 80's which I gave
away to my homeless mate!!!
As you say on your website it's
the dog's bollocks!!!
Many thanks again".

"Fast and Reliable Service"
"Thanks Kane for a fast and reliable service. My parka (with wolf fur hood) arrived safe and sound and looks great. Also, your recommendations on sizing were spot on - the small is definitely large enough! I can't wait for the cold weather to arrive.
David Thackery, Australia
"Well done to all at Fishtail Parkas!"
"I gave you a pretty tough challenge and you came up trumps!I called with the order on Thursday pm requesting delivery for Tuesday am - just to make it interesting you had to also complete the real fur switch!!
Well you completed your mission perfectly as the coat arrived about 9.30 am on Tuesday.
Top job & a top coat - I couldn't have asked for more!"
