Color... Black Stains, tears, odors, etc... None Beret 55 9 1/2 It was in my parents' dresser. I think it's over 40 years old. It has a crease, but I think it will straighten out. I don't know the brand, but it's well-made. I'm selling it because it's too small for me. It seems to be for men, but I think men and women can use it if the size fits. Thank you. Waterproof. 100% wool. Made in France.
