edward an herringbone coat, size 8


i own too many coats. there's never enough time to wear all of them, so i'm getting rid of some this week.

bought this coat at ron herman nearly 6 years ago because it was on super sale, but it's always been a little too big for me. it was dry cleaned last season and hasn't been worn since. there is a tiny bit of pilling, but the coat has a lot of life left in it. if you've been checking thrift stores for a winter coat, this would be a nice alternative.


EDIT: a seam next to a button hole needs to be stitched, but it's an easy repair. i will do a once-over with my sweater shaver before sending the coat out. i've included photos of the tear and an example of the pilling on the back side of the sleeve.

pit-to-pit: 20"
waist: 16 1/2"
the coat is a size 8 but it fits me in the shoulders. it's too big in the chest and waist, although when layered with a sweater, it fits much better. would fit a 6 or 8.

paid $200 on sale
asking $35 including shipping and delivery confirmation
