I bought this cardigan for my husband, but I do not believe he has ever worn it. I love the vintage look of it, the buttons are lovely, and it truly is weatherproof. The lining is 100% cotton so it is warm and cozy. As for major pilling and snags, I always say it is possible just in case I missed anh, but please see photos. It could be worn with jeans, or even with joggers and a t-shirt for a quick run to... wherever you may be going. Please see photos for measurements.
