How hard is it to know if what you're selling is Red??  When you label it Red, I expect U.S. flag. red or the St. Louis Cardinals red, not some weird shade of Rust/Red. I would not have kept this if time permitted. The quality appears to be good- 2 sets of tie strings, one around where your shoulders would go and one where your hips would be; and it is well padded. Just don't order this color if you are looking for red.
