I purchased this last autumn and despite really loving it, I don't wear it enough to justify keeping it (it's probably been worn half a dozen times). Retail was €1700 / $2200 from Al Duca D'Aosta, and it's made in Italy from beautifully soft (probably Scottish given Ballantyne's heritage) cashmere.

The 'outside' is two-ply mushroom coloured cashmere, and the inside is exactly the same in ivory, with knitted cuffs and insulation between the two cashmere layers. It's not perfectly reversible because the zip isn't double sided, but the two sides are constructed in exactly the same way.

It was sold as an EU48 and I'd say it fits true to size - being very padded it's tricky to get measurements but it's approximately:

22" 'inside' P2P
25" bottom of hood to hem
18" pit to cuff

Happy to ship worldwide at cost.
