Men's sweatshirt with stand-up collar

Armor lux produces this sporty, maritime sweatshirt with a high stand-up collar that can be pulled close to the neck with a drawstring, which is an advantage in strong winds. The knitted fabric is a heavy, ribbed jersey that emphasizes the distinctive character of the shirt. Elasticated cuffs finish the sleeves and body. Two side pockets are inserted into the forward-facing side seams. The cotton used comes from controlled organic cultivation.

Tellingly, “armor” is the Breton word for sea, and “lux” cannot mean anything else than the magic light at Brittany’s coast. In keeping with their brand’s name, Armor lux design many of their jumpers and shirts, dresses, trousers, hats, caps and scarves in a maritime style. The company, based in Quimper and founded by a Swiss at the end of the 1930s, combines simple, comfortable cuts, classic colours and uncompromising quality of materials and craft. The main production facility is still the company’s headquarter in France while, to a small extent, branches in Madagascar and Tunisia support the production. Armor lux processes organic-certified cotton for the selected textiles we present you here.
