A beautiful authentic Breton sweater in deep red pure wool made in France from marine label Royal Mer for men. This is the traditional fisherman's sweater better known as "Le Chandail Breton" in 100% high quality pure wool with ribbed cuff but no hem. A lovely trendy jumper perfect to wear with a pair of jeans, ideal for week-ends and sailing.
This is a close body contoured fit with a left shoulder buttoning, high neck, signature label branding on one arm and brand logo on buttons. Red is notoriously difficult to photograph accurately so our images are not contractual but expect a really nice deep red.
Internal navy blue band in the shoulder opening with branded buttons and internal navy/red stripy design in the top back. The stripy effect is only internal, not visible externally and only concentrated in the upper section of the back (See close-up picture).
A high quality and well finished garment that will test the length of time.
100% pure new wool, hand wash only.
Medium stitch knit

OTHER COLOURS: navy blue (for men), plain navy blue (for men & women), navy with cream stripes (for men & women), cream with navy stripes (for men & women)
The main differences between the sweaters for men compared to the ones for men & women, are the length (+0.8"), shoulder to shoulder also a bit wider and sleeve length a bit longer.
LABEL: Royal Mer, made in Brittany, France
