CONDITION
Good condition, a little bit worn, but still presents and wears well.
-One small thread darn on the shoulder of the sleeve, see photos. Slight fray wear to corner of pocket. One small darn to the inside of the hem, which can't be seen when worn.
-Not sure if buttons are original but they are not a modern replacement so most likely a historical replacement if so.
-Lining is a bit worn, with a couple of small frayed spots under one arm and some signs of handstitching and repairs to underarm seams. Some slight discolouration to pits. Still good and wearable as is.
