Things to note, the coating in the back pockets is breaking down. It looks like it was rubber? The actual material of the pocket is intact, but whatever it was lined with is cracking and coming off. Please refer to the last photo. Also the inside cotton flannel lining in the cuffs and jacket has some wear. The ribbing is ok but the cotton flannel lining on the back of the wool cuff has wear.
