January 2016 update: the original MERIDIEN II has been discontinued and replaced it with the MERIDIEN MODERNE. It is still the same cotton, same colour, just a sizing adjustment. We have a very small stock left of MERIDIEN II which is listed under "OLD", with the MERIDIEN MODERNE listed as "NEW".
Note for the ladies: this top is designed for men so please avoid unless you are very tall and happy to roll up sleeves. Best to look at those cut for women only, see our full range of women's striped Breton tops.
