The 5 Point Bomber features bold colour blocking and narrow stripes, which are inspired by Canada’s iconic Hudson Bay Company blankets. The wide contrast waist slides perfectly into a kangaroo pouch pocket, adding a flattering visual effect.
The bottom-up, seamed construction ensures a great fit and structure, with the traditional high collar to keep you cozy on blustery days. Short rows are used to shape both the shoulders and the collar. The pocket divides into two separate pieces that are joined at the top.
