Named for the many small branches revealed when leaves drop during the fall season, the Ramulose Pullover features unique elements that elevate the basic raglan. Horizontal stripes mix with vertical texture, which is accented by wide contrasting bands running down both sides of the body and the sleeves. The oversized fi t provides extra comfort and is perfect for layering.
