This pea coat is from about 10 years ago. I'm selling it to organize my closet. You can wear it with the collar up or folded down. I think you can use it from winter until around April. It has been dry-cleaned and stored with the tag and cover on, so there is no smell and it's not a concern. Please purchase only if you understand that this is a used item. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to used items. The fabric is wrinkle-resistant, so it will be compressed and shipped in recycled packaging. Please be aware of this.
