TESTER PICS - Take a look at our creative teams sews all in one place.

We know you’ll appreciate the versatility of this design as one of its best features is the choice of textiles you can use. Essentially, there isn't a right or wrong choice because it works in both 2-way & 4-way stretch, making it ideally suited for every season.

You will soon discover that everything about the Unwind is relaxed: the fit, the cuffs and the hem band. It's designed to hang and move freely on the body, unlike the more hugging band styles with which you may be more familiar.

See the NEW POCKET ADD-ON instructions here. Use bundle code PEBUNDLE2 at checkout for 10% off when purchased together.
