          Grey, two-button, single-breasted tailored jacket. It was part of the uniform for technical officials at the 2012 Paralympic Games. The jacket’s lapels and collar are trimmed with black binding, accented by a light blue edge, excluding the notch. The same piping detail forms the jetted edging on the two hip pocket flaps. A welted breast pocket on the left chest displays the London 2012 Paralympics logo in light blue, featuring the "agitos" symbol in place of the Olympic Rings.

          The lining is dark blue with a light blue print depicting iconic London landmarks such as Big Ben, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and the London Eye. These buildings are also embroidered into the felt under the collar. Comes with the original tag (in the Object File).
