I wore this with my hakama for the graduation ceremony. (Used only once for this occasion) There are no noticeable stains or scratches. (Inspection by a non-professional) This is a used item, having been used once. The original box is damaged, so I will prepare a different box and ship it in a way that prevents crushing. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about condition. I am open to price negotiations. Thank you.
