the only difference between the one i got and the one pictured is the zipper, the zipper on mine is off white and "cheaper" looking but it doesnt get caught on anything and shows no signs of breaking.
i would also like to say it can be used for more then cosplay :D
when ever i feel sick and don't want to bother my self with a normal scarf i put this on :) it may not go with everything but it is very warm and comfy
