Description

The Arlo Track Jacket is a modern, versatile layer designed for everyday comfort. With its sporty collar, clever seam detailing, and practical front pockets, this zip-up offers both style and functionality. Fitted without being restrictive, the Arlo comes in three lengths—short (22”/56cm), medium (24”/61cm), and long (26”/66cm)—making it easy to create your ideal fit.

Perfect for layering, it’s light enough to wear on its own in autumn and ideal under a coat through the colder months. A unisex design that suits all gender expressions, the Arlo is a wardrobe staple with endless versatility. Though rated as intermediate, it’s well within reach for a confident beginner looking to expand their sewing skills.
