Classic stripes

Be it the Breton t-shirt or the marinière, the striped t-shirt draws upon a timeless French image of effortless, basic and casual sportswear. This is not surprising seeing as the French Navy adopted the navy and white striped shirt as part of their uniform in the 1850’s. Since then, it has been worn decade after decade and doesn’t seem to be going out of style anytime soon.
