Condition

Very good, with some minor repairs.  There is the tiny start of the hole between the breast and armpit which I have reinforced from behind, and a tiny hole at hem, hard to notice amongst the pattern (see images). The belt buckle is also fraying around the edges. There is a repair on the shoulder and some tired looking back seams. Overall it presents very well and feels strong.

At some point in its life, the original zipper was replaced with a modern hidden nylon zipper.
