-- lightweight grey wool with stripes of seafoam blue
-- tailored, longline silhouette with a tapered waistline
-- topped with a smart, convertible collar

Jacket displays evidence of time and wear in the form of moth holes throughout. I did my best to close, reinforce and repair these all by hand. While noticeable upon close inspection I feel these repairs add to the charm of having such a durable and long lasting garment. The largest and most visible mends I've circled in the photo close ups. Jacket has been freshly hand washed with no other issues of note.
