Reimagined for modern life, this elevated midweight (690g) knit blends the durability of traditional workwear with breathable comfort and refined craftsmanship. Knitted from a robust and skin-friendly blend of 70% cotton and 30% linen, this sweater is designed to endure, offering cool, natural comfort through warmer months and reliable insulation when layered over lighter pieces.
