It's in very good condition with no pronounced wear, tear, holes, stains or odors. There is evidence of very slight surface wear to the fabric, really nothing, but mentioned in the interest of full disclosure - otherwise, it is very clean and looks like it saw little use and was well stored over the years. One of the belt loops is detached and would need to be re-sewn, but this is a minor repair.

This is a wonderful quality suit by a respected designer - great power suit.
