The SAINT JAMES sailor, inspired by wool and knitted shirts in our workshops. Proud of our history and our know-how, Le Matelot embodies our values and goes as well in the open sea as on the firm ground. Authentic, timeless, it combines warmth, comfort and elegance.
It dresses for our 130 years with a crest decorated with the national flag to emphasize our French identity.

Saint James MATELOT R 130 ANS Sweater available at Jourdain.
From manufacturing the famous local woollen shirts to the genuine sailor sweaters that were so tightly knit they were regarded as a ‘second skin’, SAINT JAMES has been the nautical sweater specialist for over 120 years. It takes at least 23 kilometers of thread and 18 manufacturing steps to make a SAINT JAMES sailor sweater. In total, over 18 seamstresses will have been involved in cutting, making, quality controlling and ironing the final item. This is the level of care taken by SAINT JAMES in making top quality clothing.
