Wellwood is a lightweight fitted henley that’s perfect for layering, with its slim fit and three-quarter length sleeve. The front of the garment features a textured Broderie Anglaise bib pattern that frames the deep henley neckline. A thin band of seed stitch trims the garment’s edges and small pearl buttons add an elegant touch to this classic shape.
