Dear valued customer,
We would like to clarify that the wool used in our jacket is indeed animal hair and it is supposed to have a fibrous texture. This is a characteristic of wool and is not considered a defect. As for the color, royal blue does come in various shades and our jacket is a close match to the official guidelines. We are licensed to sell this jacket on behalf of PBS and assure you that it meets all necessary standards.
We apologize for any chemical smell that may have been present upon arrival. This is a result of the manufacturing process and will dissipate with proper airing out.
Best regards,
The KingMcneal team
