Common perhaps as winter wear (6)

I believe the answer is:

parkas

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'winter wear' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'common perhaps as' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'common' could be 'park' (synonyms) and 'park' is found within the answer.
'as' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for parkas that I've seen is " hoodies".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
