There were some places where there was a little glue, and there was glue on the string holes, so when I tried to thread the string through, the glue got on the string and it was difficult to remove.
I think the quality is something you can't really tell unless you compare it closely. I felt like there was a little bit of fabric missing around the edges of the holes on the side, but the real thing is also a model that is prone to aging and initial defects, so I guess it's within the acceptable range.
It arrived one week after I ordered it. It said it was 0.5 size up, but I was fine with my usual size. My impression after wearing it for 4 days is that it's a little too big even for my size.
