Pure Cotton Armor Lux Breton Shirts

 

 

Armor Lux Breton shirts

Armor Lux Breton Shirts (round neck style):

 

These are genuine Breton shirts in 100% pure, soft, knitted Egyptian cotton, made by Armor Lux of France. They are in a round neck style, and T-shirt shape. Adult short sleeve styles are only available in lightweight jersey cotton, while adult long sleeve styles and children’s shirts are only available in heavier interlock cotton.

 

The sizes shown below are those in use in France, with an approximate measurement given in inches and centimetres for each size. Please be aware that, in general, the short-sleeve shirts are, size for size, larger than the long-sleeve shirts. Please indicate the size required (generally two inches larger than chest measurement) and we will match it as closely as possible. If you prefer a looser fit please order a larger size still. Please note also that the navy colour used by Armor Lux is very dark.

 

As the range of colours changes regularly it is impossible to list all combinations. Please contact us for further information on colour combinations available.

 

Despite every effort to ensure consistency, the colours shown below may vary from the actual colour.


Shown at left is the classic white/navy combination

(Please note that the navy colour used by Armor Lux is very dark)

SIZING INFORMATION

 

The sizes shown in the panel opposite are based on a measurement taken across the Breton shirt, when laid flat, at a point just below where the sleeve joins the body, as shown above.

As the range of colours changes regularly it is impossible to list all combinations. Please contact us for further information on colour combinations available. The sizes shown below are those in use in France, with an approximate measurement given in inches and centimetres for each size. Please be aware that, in general, the short-sleeve shirts are, size for size, larger than the long-sleeve shirts. Please indicate the size required (generally two inches larger than chest measurement) and we will match it as closely as possible. If you prefer a looser fit please order a larger size still.
