The Breton Vert
The Breton Vert
This was the 2nd colour of shirt we introduced back in 1990 and its still going strong. Made from the same 100% knitted 180 gsm unbleached cotton. Green is the colour for starboard so its connection with sailor striped shirts has its place in history. However although its more than 20 years since we first sold it we think its enduring appeal lives on. Made to a square cut fit as with all our nautical shirts. The more you wash it the better it feels. So comfortable they’re addictive!
