Bring the rugged outdoors everywhere. Point by Meghan Babin is inspired by the iconic Hudson Bay Company striped blanket and is made for hikes, nights by the campfire, or hibernating inside on a snow day. Point’s deep-armholed, oversized “swancho” silhouette is made from the bottom up in the round, and features a fun woven-looking wrapping technique on the “peaks” for an awesome visual payoff.
