condition
items are inspected with care but oversights may occur. due to the vintage nature of most items, a baseline sense of wear is to be expected. items have aged with varied personality and possess an intrinsic character reflective of their experience.
- great condition overall - minor sense of wear throughout - partial point deterioration of pocket opening (see photo 5) from weightiness of fabric. this is a stress point and can be repaired with reinforcement stitching if desired
