The Cancale II sweater is a Saint James favourite. A nautical jumper that they have been making since the early days. The Cancale has a simple design made up of a plain dark navy colour, a close fit, long sleeves and crew neck. The sweater has a four button placket along the left shoulder. It's a practical working jumper with a wool quality that would withstand a building site, and a design smart enough for a white collar. Made in France from 100% wool.
Saint James Clothing was born in 1889 in the town of its namesake, located a few miles from the sea, and close to Mont Saint-Michel in Southern Normandy. The Saint James story began when the Legallais family started to spin and dye the local wool and sell the skeins and wool balls to the shops of Brittany and Normandy, later spinning the wool into shirts for the fishermen. Leon Legallais, the then mayor or Saint-James transformed this workshop into a large industry and in 1929 the company went public. To this day, all of their clothing is made in Saint James, France.
