I bought this a few years ago. It's a knit with a very cute cable knit pattern. The color is closest to the actual item in the 3rd and 4th pictures. It's made of wool and alpaca blend, so it's very warm. I didn't get to wear it much in Kanto... There are no major stains, but there is some signs of wear such as pilling, which is common for knits. As it is a used item, please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive about this. I plan to ship it compressed as compactly as possible.
