This Breton shirt, inspired by French maritime tradition, is crafted from smooth 100% cotton for comfort and durability. Featuring classic horizontal stripes and a relaxed silhouette, it combines style with practicality, making it ideal for layering or wearing alone. The mock neck and utility-inspired gussets add a contemporary twist to this timeless piece, offering understated elegance that transitions effortlessly from casual outings to smart occasions.
From the brand: Once the uniform of French sailors, later taken up by artists and free-thinkers along the Rive Gauche, the Breton shirt, or marinière, has long since settled into everyday dress. Our version is cut from a smooth cotton jersey, with familiar horizontal stripes and a relaxed, easy shape.
The collar band and gussets borrow from workshop smocks, simple over-garments worn in studios to protect clothing from paint or clay, adding a quiet note of utility to an otherwise classic piece.
It layers easily under a jacket, but holds its own just as well, with the kind of understated appeal that has made it a staple from Toulouse to Tokyo.
