Puzzled
The product, as always is superb. The reason for the loss of star is that the product is called beige/navy, but it is such a dark navy, that it can be more identified as black. I have fourteen anti UV striped sailor shirts, all great, and am so disappointed that your colour range in this material is now reduced to about three colours. If it didn’t cost so much to return this shirt, I would, because I still want a Navy/Neige shirt! Christine Williams
GARDE-COTE III - Nautical Striped Top
I love these tops. Years ago I bought some in some great colors like pink/white, a yellow green/white, light blue/white. Would love to see some interesting colors again!
