Breton striped shirt Men

An iconic and versatile piece, the men’s Breton striped shirt can be worn both in a casual look and in a more elegant version. With jeans, chinos and sneakers, it creates a relaxed outfit that is easy to wear. Under a jacket, a pea coat or a blazer, it adds an elegant and timeless touch.

Cotton can be found in various forms depending on the yarn used and how it is knitted. Interlock (260g/m2) refers to a dense, heavy knit with a soft, smooth, comfortable feel that provides good hold and is particularly suitable for winter styles. Rustic jersey (250g/m2) has a more raw and textured appearance, with a slightly irregular yarn reminiscent of traditional marine knits; drier to the touch, it softens with washing. Jersey (140g/m2) offers a supple, smooth, and lightweight knit, pleasant for everyday wear. Rib knit, on the other hand, is recognizable by its vertical relief and natural elasticity, which provides support while accommodating movement.

For summer, choose men’s Breton striped shirts in jersey or with short sleeves, such as Etel, Théviec or Plozévet. For mid-season, opt for versatile models that are easy to wear on their own or under a lightweight jacket. In winter, choose interlock Breton striped shirts, such as Houat, Loctudy, Amiral or the classic Breton striped shirts, to pair with a Sailor jumper, a warm jacket or a pea coat.
