The Hug is that ultra-versatile piece your wardrobe has been crying out for. The shrug-on cape features an open sleeve so it works over even your bulkiest sweaters. Our quilted version is the perfect, all-weather outer layer and a must for dog walks in blustery spring or chilly early autumn mornings. The fine wool flannel version is a chic alternative to a more structured jacket. The user friendly, front patch pockets add comfort and ultilitarian detail, while the detachable collar can be removed if you are already wearing a jacket underneath. Oh and did we mention it’s one of our simplest makes yet?
