The item was worn a few times by my child. They quickly outgrew it, and I kept it for years for my younger child, but they didn't like it, so I'm selling it. The fabric transitions, designed to look like train tracks, and the embroidered Thomas and friends' profiles are stylish. I don't think there's much fading, which is typical of navy blue, but please understand that it has been stored by a non-professional for many years and is a used item that a child has worn.
