Choosing the Perfect Men's Sailor Jumper
The sailor jumper is a timeless staple of the SAINT JAMES wardrobe, but not all silhouettes are the same. That’s why we offer different fits to suit everyone's preferences and needs.
Whether you're looking for a fitted cut that hugs the body or a looser fit for more comfort, this guide will help you understand our different cuts, their characteristics, and find the style that suits you best.
Inspired by traditional sailors sweaters, the Matelot jumper stands out with its slim fit, designed to closely follow the body’s shape. It features a finely remeshed round neck, shoulder buttoning, and a tightly knit fabric that makes it nearly water-resistant. Made from traditional wool, it has a rustic, authentic feel, staying true to the heritage of maritime clothing. Designed for men, this model retains its nautical DNA while evolving into a modern citywear essential.
With a looser fit than the Matelot, the Binic (striped) and Cancale jumpers strike a balance between comfort and style. Their ribbed hem ensures a perfect drape while adding volume. Crafted from traditional wool, they are distinguished by their rustic texture and authentic material. Designed for men, these jumpers are ideal for those seeking a maritime-inspired look with more ease and roomier proportions, unlike the more fitted Matelot.
The Rochefort jumper stands out with its buttoned round collar, straight cut, and soft merino wool composition. It offers a slightly looser alternative to the Matelot, while still maintaining a close fit to the body. This gives it a structured silhouette with added comfort. It thus combines comfort and style while staying true to the maritime spirit.
