In its signature Breton stripes, attractive and colorful from the sea-shore to the city, the versatile GALATHEE II striped tee lends itself to different styles with spontaneity and style. Pair it with cropped jeans and ballet shoes for an instant 1930's French Riviera look! Its 3/4 length sleeves, round neck, and fitted waist give the iconic marinière a feminine touch.
Like all Saint James fabrics, our hospitality industry-endorsed light cotton is engineered to stand the test of time and of countless cold washes. For a more substantial, textured, authentic weight and similar outstanding quality, choose MERIDAME (women fit) or MERIDIEN MODERNE (men fit).

Have many of these shirts
Love these shirts. One thing I would love to see is a little longer in the length of the women’s sizes. I’m 5’ 10” tall and would love a little more leeway in the length of the body. I’m a big fan. Have way too many of these shirts!
I wish all of my clothes were this good.
I look for many different things when I purchase an article of clothing: fit, type and quality (and sustainability) of the fabric, and quality of construction are the most important elements to me. If it fits well and has at least one other attribute then I count that as a win. My marinière shirt from Saint James is like winning the grand prize! It fits perfectly, the pride of the person who made this garment is evident in the attention to detail in the construction, and it's made of 100% cotton. I highly recommend the Galathee II to anyone thinking of making a purchase.
