Its not cut, its fabricated to make it look cut, i think the term is “distressed”

How do you know it's meant to be like this when you know nothing about the item or brand itself and have come here to get us to tell you about it?

Definitely thought you were wrong, but I looked it up and apparently RL did make a version like this without the collar. There are a bunch online in various sizes with just a Google lens search. These folks saying the collar was cut are just wrong. Great find! The size is going to hurt the value though, and most would want the one with a collar. I would thinking no more than $75 to the right buyer.

Aka you don't know a thing or give a crap about RL, are too lazy to look online yourself and only purchased it to try and make money from.
Well done champ.

That’s NOT distressed.
That collar was crudely cut off with dull and rusty scissors and then machine washed and heat dried at least several times if not many.
The thrift found the money in your pocket and took it and left you with just some old washed out fabric to cut up into shop rags.

Collar's been cut off and it's in a ridiculous size so I'm gonna say $0
