Although it's not down, but rather synthetic filling, it's very warm and has been useful. It can be worn as a mod coat or as a padded jacket coat. I mainly wore it as a padded jacket coat. There are no noticeable stains, but there is some slight fuzzing due to rubbing. I don't think it's very noticeable, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. The hood fur is missing. It will be compressed for packaging. The cheapest shipping method will be used. Please purchase only if you understand that this is a used item and has been stored at home.
