Boy's Breton

9 replies

Has anyone seen any nice children's Breton tops? I bought some gorgeous ones in H&M last year which were perfect; wide boat-neck, buttons at neck, lovely light cotton, 3/4 length sleeves. And £1.99.

DS (2.5) lived in them and looked lovely and I'd like to get a couple for this summer. H&M don't do them anymore. Has anyone seen similar?

Sainsburys! Ds has a pack of 3 - navy with White stripe, White with blue stripe and button front and plain pale blue. He's in 2-3 size.
Think it was about £8 and all their stuff washes well. :)

Hi Red!

Polarn O Pyret are always good for stripes and this is a sweet Breton. Not £1.99 unfortunately though.

polarn lovely but £££ - and actually i have to say H&M often better quality. H&M have got LS stripey tops in though, organic cotton, £4.99 and they have washed much better than the polarn top I got Hmm

H&M tops here

seasalt also have some nice ones

TheAllNewOoooh · 03/03/2011 10:30

I like this one too.

Oh, and this. Love the buttons and the anchor but also spenny.

TheAllNewOoooh · 03/03/2011 10:33

Jojos are doing two for £26.

May get some for DS too.

Thanks ladies, just seen this. Popped into H&M where they had a nice thicker cotton traditional looking breton with a pocket and some more basic long-sleeved stripy ones, in fact the very ones maxybrown linked to. They also had some lovely skinny-ish bright cotton trousers, for anyone interested.

Darcy one is lovely Ooh - DS highly likely to trash it so wondering if worth the cost? Jojo one is perfect, might get a couple of those. Not sure about the Frugi one - have an inbred hatred of skull and crossbones on any boys clothing - tie it in with all that 'Mummy's Little Shit' stuff (you know what I mean).

oh good red Smile the H&M ones wash brilliantly.

I agree with the skull and crossbones, hate it - shame as frugi stuff lovely! Jo Jo stuff lovely quality though too, all their Breton stuff is nice
