Striped sweaters in cotton, wool and cashmere, a century-old classic, in stock now.

Stripes come and go every few seasons. The Breton stripe does not. It started as a sailor's uniform and has been the easiest way to add pattern to a plain wardrobe ever since.
We chose stripes that are regular and quiet, on knits made to be washed for years.
