Originally worn by early 20th-century outdoorsmen and Ivy League rowers, the shawl-collar sweater remains a go-to for long-lasting warmth. Relwen builds on that heritage by knitting theirs with a double-faced, drop-needle rib for an ultra-soft feel against the skin. In classic Relwen fashion, the seams that get the most wear are reinforced with cotton tape for long-term shape retention and durability.
