This is a reversible poncho from Branshes. I received it as a gift, but I rarely wore it. There are no noticeable stains or fraying, but as it has been stored at home, please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item. How about it for the coming cold season? I think you can wear it for a long time. *I am very sorry, but I will be unable to ship items during my hospital stay as I am due to give birth soon. If you are in a hurry, please comment first.
