I've worn this for several years, so there's some fraying and small pills, showing signs of wear. The shape is good, so the mesh hasn't stretched much. What bothers me are the frayed seams and some wear on the seat. I've never had anything sewn, so I didn't try to fix it, but some people might be able to repair it by hand-sewing, etc. ^-^ Other than that, I don't think there are any noticeable odors or stains. I've loved wearing this, so it's a shame to throw it away. I'm offering it for sale in case anyone wants to try it out! ❣️
