The first picture is from their website and represents the true color. I believe it was called cobalt blue, and it is really pretty! The pictures I took came out really dark and are not a good representation. This hoodie has never been worn. However, it was washed once in cold water, with Eco laundry soap and air dried outside. Never put in the dryer. I wash everything before I wear it. Please check their website for more info. Pet friendly home.
