A laid-back t-shirt silhouette, it is woven to a tonal checkerboard pattern from cream and cappuccino hues. It has short, slightly puffed sleeves and a rounded neckline. The neckline has a trompe l’oeil polo collar where the collar has been woven in a contrasting pale brown knit but actually sits flat.
