Brighton (For Him)
Small simple cables crossing little bands of purl stitches form a lively allover fabric to make Brighton the perfect understated wardrobe anchor. This classic V-neck is designed for a slim, tailored fit with 0-2” of ease. Clean, tubular edges and deep double ribbing at the cuffs and hem give a professional air.
