James is a traditional lumber jacket worked in pieces from the bottom up in our authentic Irish Heather, Erin. Raglan decreases shape the yoke and sleeves, and stitches are picked up to work the collar after seaming. Wear it as a sweater layer to head out in the snow, or as a jacket during a milder day.
The Left and Right Fronts feature generous pockets. The button band is worked simultaneously with the fronts, and a double knit collar keeps the chill out.
