The Breton Noir
A lesson in natural selection if ever there was one. 25 years ago we introduced The Nautique. Navy based classic Breton Shirt with soft cream stripes. Never close to extinction but now adapted and evolved. The Breton Noir is a black based classic square cut Breton Shirt but with cool crisp white stripes. Created in supersoft 220gsm cotton. The more you wash it the better it feels. A clear example of survival of the fitt(ing)est!

Sustainability
We put our people and planet at the forefront of our business operation. We work a 'just-in-time' production line to ensure we minimise any waste fabric, and only ever sea freight our stock from our family run factory in Portugal to our warehouse in the UK. We've also proudly partnered with a local social enterprise that provides work opportunities to young adults with learning difficulties, autism and complex needs.
100%
All of our products are made from 100% unbleached organic cotton.
Frequently Asked Questions
Use this text to share information about your product or shipping policies.
Do you ship overseas?
Yes, we ship all over the world. Shipping costs will apply, and will be added at checkout. We run discounts and promotions all year, so stay tuned for exclusive deals.
How long will it take to get my order?
It depends entirely on where you are and the delivery service you select. Typically, orders placed over £50 are shipping on our FREE delivery service which takes 3 - 5 working days. Overseas deliveries can take anywhere from 7-16 days.
You can choose your delivery preferences at checkout should you need an express delivery, and all delivery details will be provided in your confirmation email.
How do I care for my Breton shirt?
All our fabric is pre shrunk before being hand cut to shape, therefore all shrinkage has already been done. To look after and care for your Breton, wash at 30 degrees, do not tumble dry and steam iron back to shape, this will lengthen the fibres to their original shape.
Are the shirts unisex?
All our shirts are unisex except the Bateau Mariners. These have a boat neck and are slightly tailored at the waist.
