Founded in Bretagne, France in 1936, Le Minor produces Basque shirts in a variety of colours every season very much like Saint James or Orcival. Tightly knitted with heavy duty cotton, they were favoured by the French Navy and Fishermen back then for it’s comfort, durability and wind resistance. Like denim, these shirts get better with repeated use. The patch worked stripe ones I received looks good and adds a very interesting twist to the classic Basque shirt style. (Thanks R.T!)

On a side note, we would also like to welcome Mr. Tyler Askew to our list of contributors.
