The color is beige. The waist string is removable. It's warm with a sturdy fabric that feels like wool. There is some pilling on the sleeves, etc., and the buttons were originally loosely sewn, so I have repaired two places, but they are still loose. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. Lined, with pockets, no stretch, side slits.
