Looking for a yellow sailor sweater? Le Minor, specialist in the breton sweater since 1922.

What cut for your sailor sweater?
To satisfy both purists who only have eyes for the original model and those who want a more modern garment, the Le Minor sailor sweater is available in three cuts. There's the straight cut, of course. This is the true Le Minor sweater, the one that hasn't changed since the knitwear workshop was founded over a hundred years ago. Respecting tradition doesn't mean you can't evolve. Le Minor has understood this by offering two evolutions of its indestructible breton sweater. There's the relaxed cut for a more modern look. And a sport cut with a ribbed waistband.
