Pros
high quality, understated and versatile design, nice neutral colors with some texture

Initially, I was disappointed that the color of the fabric is very subdued.

The fabric is excellent quality and the subtlety of the colors allows the runner to work with many pieces. It's a great piece to use when layering.
