How old is the jacket? What is the condition? Finally are the horizontal lines fainter than the vertical lines? It appears so in the photos.

Hi there,
Thanks for your interest. It's about 5 years old, hardly worn at all and in excellent condtition. It was always just a tad small for me as I'm a 40S. I maybe wore twice a year.
Thanks,
J

Thanks! How about the question about the stripes. In most of the pictures you can barely see the horizontal lines

That's a great question. I must have missed it the first read. I hadn't thought of this until you mentioned it. In less natural light it does appear that the vertical stripes are about twice as visible as the horizontal. But in softer natural light and on the angle they appear almost the same. It's a neat effect actually. So I would say as a default and in a harder light the vertical stripes are stronger. In daylight outside the check is much more visible. Hope that answers your question.
