The top is a motley of multi-colored stripes printed on the classic preppie-era Oxford cloth — a strong textured weave that's made for the long haul. The underside is a cushy cream-colored sherpa, which has the soft warmth of a Flakati rug. Velcro fastening at the neck and adjustable cotton webbing around the body assure a custom fit. As the fabric is cut randomly from a master bolt (see swatch above), each jacket is an original and will therefore vary from the photo. Wash by hand in cool water, air dry.
