This is a lovely sashiko cloth garment. It has been used gently and you can see a slight patina forming on the jacket I'm places. I wish I could still fit into it, but it isn't possible. These garments age beautifully and with another couple of seasons, it will be in it's prime. Lovely pine green color. Size 40 is accurate. feels like a large medium or a smaller large. I have really loved this garment. One note is that it did have a failure on the patch pocket in the corner but was repaired by the company that produced the garment. Like Norse Projects, WTAPS, Our Legacy, TS(S), APC, Acne Studios, Beams, Lybro, Faherty, Stitch, Engineered Garments, Visvim, Needles, Dead Head, Monitaly, Momotaro, etc.
