Condition: In good condition overall with some surface wear, fuzziness & minor bobbling - some wear & fraying to the buttonholes - a discreet repair near the 2nd button down which is more visible on the inside (arrowed) - feels like it has been washed too hot at some point as the knit is a bit firm & not quite as stretchy as it should be. Has been carefully hand washed & steamed prior to listing.
