Frequently Asked Questions

01. PRODUCT INFO

1.How do I search for an item ?

You can use the internal search engine of this website. Enter the name or type of product you are looking for. For example, you can search for "sweater" and thus discover different filters that will allow you to refine your search.

The menu bar also gives you access to the main categories: Women, Men, Kids, and Accessories.

2.Where are the Saint James products made ?

Saint James was incorporated in 1889 in Normandy, France but archives show that wool and knitting workshops have existed in the area since the Middle Ages. See our full story in the About Saint James section of the website.

To this day, knitwear and striped shirts are still produced in our facility in the village of Saint-James, France as indicated on the product pages.

3.What if the product I want to buy is not in stock ?

You have the option of setting up an alert on the website. You will then receive an email to let you know as soon as your item becomes available again. Indeed, if the product is a victim of its success, our workshops will do their utmost to replenish it.

4.Where can I find Saint James products in my area ?

Our products are distributed in a selection of multi-brand retailers, whose list you can find in our store locator accessible through the website's footer navigation.

5.How can I be sure I'm ordering the right size ?

By indicating your measurements, you find the size that suits you. Click here to access the SAINT JAMES size guide.

6.What are the different cuts available ?

SAINT JAMES sailor shirts, fisherman sweaters, and raincoats are unique. Each model has its specific fit. You can find more details about the different fits we propose (slim, adjusted, straight, feminine, fitted, comfort etc) in the size guide.

7.What is a wishlist ?

A wishlist is a list of your favorite items, which you may want to save for later reference. That way, you can view or purchase them on your next visit. 

8.How long do products stay on the wishlist ?

The products remain registered on your wishlist for 28 days.

9.How do I take care of my SAINT JAMES products ?

Pure new wool is naturally static. Unlike synthetic fibers, dust does not stick to it deeply. Simple brushing and your clothes will stay clean for a very long time.

Wool is alive. Let your clothes "breathe." In your closet, do not pack your clothes too tight. They will naturally resume their shape.

For washing, follow the care instructions on the product label.

Never put woolen clothing in your dryer.

The mesh can be steam ironed in position 2 of your iron. If you iron it dry, place a wet cloth between the iron and the garment to prevent it from getting shiny.

10.What is the Atelier line ?

SAINT JAMES l'Atelier is the story of Saint-James, the true one since 1889: 100% wool sweaters are knitted there, quite simply unique, thanks to the longevity of the knit. Families pass Saint-James sweaters from one generation to the next.

SAINT JAMES l'Atelier is also the world of sea crossings and stripes: Breton Striped Shirts are made in the workshops using unique know-how. It's all about proportion, balance, and of course, quality. The 16x8 stripe is distinctive to Saint-James.

SAINT JAMES l'Atelier consists of these iconic pieces (sweaters, Breton shirts, and coats) that are classic, authentic, timeless, and seasonless. Yet, each season, we reinterpret these classics always inspired by the sea, the bay of Mont Saint-Michel, which surrounds us, and this heritage of 130 years alive.

11.How does EPV - Living Heritage Company label - guarantee quality ?

This distinction is a state label awarded to companies for five years, distinguishing French companies with excellent artisanal and industrial know-how. This label brings together manufacturers committed to the high performance of their profession and their products.

The designated manufacturing houses are recognized to hold a specific economic heritage, know-how based on mastery of techniques

traditional or high-tech, hence promoting French production. They benefit, like SAINT JAMES, from an old business standing and of great notoriety.

Sharing common values, the "Living Heritage Companies" reconcile

tradition and innovation, know-how and creation, work and passion; they are solidly rooted in their territory but resolutely turned towards the future and often very present internationally.
