Maker: Johnathan Logan
Condition: Fair/Good. Selling as is. There are multiple, and I mean multiple, moth holes that I have repaired and many left to go. Most of these are tiny and due to the nature of the tweed are difficult to spot until you hold it up to the light. (Should go unnoticed when worn over a dark colored slip. Please see photos, I have shown the worst, but there are too many to show all clearly. There is also yellowing at the armholes that I managed to lighten in a soak and hand spot treatment, but are persistent. The ribbed knit collar had damage, but I was able to salvage by folding in under and stitching is down as seen in photos. (It could be removed, but I hated to lose it.) Freshly soaked and line dried, arrives clean and ready to wear.
