CONDITION
Good condition. Wool is a very fine slightly coarse weave, and this shows some light wear under the arms, internally it also looks like the underarm seams have been resewn. Not particularly noticeable when worn, but I would allow a little bit of room for movement to keep from putting to much strain on the seams as the wool weave is quite fine.
