Fabric: wool
Measurements:
Pit to Pit: 20"
Length: 28"
Sleeve Length: 27.5" when sleeves are unrolled at the cuffs
Shoulder to Shoulder: 16.5"
Condition:
I'm too scared to wash a wool piece like this but it does feel a bit grimy - I put it through the dryer to kill any bacteria as well as giving it a good steam though. Otherwise it's in great condition with general signs of wear. sold as found.
