Cleanliness

Appears un-worn, no dirt/stains on seatband. Some transferred dirt/stains on base, likely resulting from contact with another material during storage/movement. Of note, a small orange mark on underside of visor, left side.

Materials

Foam of front panels is intact with no obvious deterioration.

Structure

The plastic interior of the visor is cracked, as can be felt through the outer fabric. Located to the front right of the visor. Reasonably little warping of shape. Front panel well shaped. Mesh slightly warped in back.
