This top can be worn with either side in the front. I often wore it with the Kokin-chan side because I liked Kokin-chan. I didn't see any noticeable stains, but there was a faint stain on the neck area of the Kokin-chan side. Also, there are marks where a name sticker was peeled off on the tag. In addition, since this is a personal inspection, there may be oversights. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to these details or are looking for a new item. It will be folded and compressed for packaging.
