Sports Jacket Appraisal

Black Hooded Performance Jacket

This is a black hooded jacket, likely made from a synthetic performance fabric such as polyester or a blend, given its matte finish and apparent water-resistant characteristics. The jacket features a full-length black zipper down the front, which appears to be water-resistant or sealed, indicating a design suited for active wear or light weather protection. The zipper pull is not clearly visible but seems to be a standard size. There is a drawstring closure at the hood, with black cords and plastic or rubber toggles on either side. A prominent circular logo is visible on the upper right chest area, consisting of concentric circles and what appears to be stylized text or graphics within. Although the text is not legible, the 'David and Gernezo' context provided suggests it might be associated with a brand of that name. There are also two diagonally oriented zippered pockets on the lower front, each with a black weather-sealed zipper, reinforcing the activewear functionality. The stitching throughout the jacket appears to be robust and clean, indicating good craftsmanship, with no visible loose threads or significant wear. The overall condition appears excellent, with no rips, tears, or major signs of abrasion or discoloration. The fabric has a smooth, slightly textured appearance. Its contemporary design elements, such as the sealed zippers and minimalistic branding, suggest it is a modern piece, likely from the 21st century.
