I've worn this for about two seasons. There's some light soiling overall on the sleeves. There are a few scratches on the buttons. Other than that, there are no noticeable scratches or stains, but it does show signs of wear. The hood is not removable. I will fold it tightly and compress it slightly for shipping. I am also selling a size 110 jacket from the same brand. Please take a look at that as well. I am also selling other children's clothes. I may be able to offer a discount for combined purchases, so feel free to comment. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to items stored at home.
