Description

Amina is a generously-sized, relaxed-fit hoodie with a straight, unfussy silhouette. Its front showcases vertical design elements, complete with integrated pockets. The hoodie boasts a dropped shoulder and lengthy shirt sleeves detailed with twin decorative seams, ending in neat cuffs. The roomy hood features a centre seam and overlapping sections at the front neckline, equipped with a channel for twill tape to be threaded through the machine-sewn buttonholes. Amina’s lower hem is neatly finished with a waistband, and the hoodie’s length extends just below the hip.
