This piece is available in standard fit.[1,2,4] | Floral Logo Sweatshirt: Choose this if you want a black, relaxed-fit crewneck with a statement graphic: a baroque floral-and-arabesque print with a white floral emblem and Balmain wordmark across the chest, ribbed neckline, cuffs and hem, and a clean, unprinted back. It is made of 100% cotton jersey with a terry underside in sizes small to large, made in Portugal. One wearer of a similar version reported it was very warm with the print intact after a year, though they noted a printing flaw on theirs.[5,6,7,8,9] |
