A timeless symbol of French maritime style, this vintage navy-and-white marinière is crafted from thick, durable cotton knit — the kind made to last a lifetime. The weight and hand-feel set it apart from modern reproductions, with a dense weave that keeps its shape while softening beautifully with wear. The classic boat neckline and straight cut reflect traditional French sailor uniforms, now reimagined as an effortless wardrobe essential.
Hand-sourced in Paris, this piece embodies quiet luxury — simple, strong, and perfectly made.
