—01. Grey.
—02. Navy.

Words

I've often thought that a plain coloured Breton top would look nice, but they seem more rare than the classic striped version. Present recently received a selection in stripes as well as plain colours, offering black, ecru, grey and navy in the mid-weight jersey.

Words

Every time The Real McCoy's make this fabric, I regret not getting a particular shirt they had done in 2010. These shorts still offer a nice amount of the camouflage pattern, which can fit into a summer outfit with ease.

Affordable and exceptional, the second and third parts of this trilogy are currently available at Dashwood Books in New York, or direct from the publisher's website.

—01-02. Navy jacquard.

Words

There are usually one or two items that slip through the cracks when looking at all of the collections during buying season. Maybe they had been moved, or somebody else was trying them on: maybe they just weren't appealing at the time. Whatever the case, this hooded jacquard shirt looks really nice. It has a familiar poncho aesthetic, but is definitely a bit more wearable.
