$120.00 (VAT incl.) $120.00 (VAT excl.)

Unbeatable in the Breton wardrobe, this sailor top has been reinvented at 727 Sailbags, with original elbow patches in recycled spinnakers.

The Tuscan Marinière is made of lightweight, breathable and fluid cotton, for a relaxed silhouette and comfort at all times. Its ecru color is embellished with thin red stripes evoking radiant Tuscan vibes of the red tiled roofs of Elba Island, in the heart of the Archipelago. The classic cut of this sailor top is adorned with ecru elbow patches made in 100% recycled spinnaker - thin and flexible for freedom of movement.

Timeless, elegant and comfortable, the Tuscan Breton shirt slips on easily throughout the seasons and destinations, to fill your day with iodized air.

This product is made with spinnaker inserts. Invented in 1937, nylon is the oldest synthetic fiber used in sailcloth. Its lightness, elasticity and resistance make it the ideal material for the spinnaker of sailboats. Usually quite colorfull, the "spinnaker" is easy to spot on sea with its bubble shape at the front of boats sailing downwind.
