Mariniere Women Breton Shirt

Le Minor is renowned worldwide for its authentic marinière, which has been 100% made in France since the 1970s. The men's striped sailor suit is thoughtfully designed, crafted, and finished in our local Breton workshop.

With a legacy of serving the most demanding customers, including the French Navy— for whom it produced the officer's sweater for 40 years—Le Minor possesses a wealth of expertise that has been passed down through generations at its factory in Guidel, near Lorient.

Today, Le Minor continues to innovate and reinvent iconic Breton pieces, such as the sailor sweater and sailor's hat. This process involves the use of vintage machines that ensure the production of high-quality garments, requiring a unique and precise skill set. To preserve this ancestral art, the training of the new generation occurs in-house, allowing them to work directly with the machines and learn from the experienced seamstresses. This hands-on training is vital for maintaining the craftsmanship that defines Le Minor.

Immerse your Anjelms piece in cold water and gently hand wash it. If a washing machine is used, cold gentle cycle is recommended.

After washing, avoid wringing it out to preserve the delicate textile quality and lay it flat or hang to air dry in a shaded area to prevent fading and protect the fabric from the harsh effects of direct sunlight. Only iron on low heat.

To preserve the integrity of the colors and material, opt for mild, gentle pH-neutral detergents that are suitable for delicate fabrics.
