A favorite for fashion icons from Pablo Picasso to Kurt Cobain, the Breton shirt is trending for men again. An exhaustive look into the history of the classic:
THE BRETON striped shirt wasn’t always striped. As far back as the first century, the resourceful townspeople of Saint-James in northwest France produced sturdy, solid indigo or ecru wool pullovers for local mariners.
As these seamen traveled, so did word of their formidable shirts. Such was the tops’ reputation, legend has it, that in 1858 the French military commissioned versions with 10-millimeter-wide, horizontal, blue stripes, one for each of Napoleon’s 21 victories over the British at sea.
