Vintage 40s Red Coat from Harold Minneapolis - Color is a lovely shade of strawberry/vermillion/persian red - not an intense red
No fabric or size tag. Please see measurements to ensure proper fit - model is 5'8" XS (coat was loose on this size) for comparison:
Measures approx 22" across underarm to underarm with material spread out. Waist: 23" across. Bottom hem measures 33" across. Sleeve approx 24" from shoulder. Shoulders 15". Length 38".
The material is average thickness - not heavy winter material. Soft, could it be boiled wool? Not at all itchy, doesn't make me sneeze like some wools.
Single clear button, I put this vintage button on as the coat lacked one.
Flaw: tear on material behind button. darkened cuff on one sleeve. Some spots that may or may not come out with dry cleaning - see closeup photos where I zoom in on these. Some mild fading on lining and Harold tag is loose.
