The cotton material lines on the top and bottom show noticeable pilling. There is also some sun fading of the fabric. My family member used this for their motorcycle commute, so it shows considerable wear. There is some pilling of the inner boa, but it still retains its fluffiness. Three-layer construction combining windproof fabric and high-insulation padding. The inside uses a boa fleece with a large amount of brushing for a soft feel. It is soft and voluminous, filling the gaps around the neck. Manufacturer... RS Taichi
