Up for sale here is a sweater from the Bleu de Paname label. Bleu de Paname is one of those rare, proudly made in France labels that manages to both produce some pretty high quality stuff while at the same time somehow keep their prices pretty reasonable. Designs tend to reference classic French workwear (think labels like Danton, Saint James, Orcival and Laboureur), while at the same time bringing in a pretty strong indigo influence. A lot of their pieces are indigo dyed, creating an extra interesting bit of detail.
In this case we have Bleu’s take on the classic crewneck sweater. This is a cotton knit, done in a navy blue color. Design is pretty simple and straightforward, with a logo print on the front, as well as a smaller logo tag at the bottom. Blue de Paname isn’t a brand you come across too often. They’re on the smaller side of things, producing very limited quantities and with limited distribution. However, they make some really nice stuff. This one is available at a much nicer price than the retail.
Size is labeled a small but fits loose, more like a standard medium. I measure the chest at 22”, shoulders at 17”, length at 26” from the base of the neck and sleeves at 2.45” from the shoulder. The sweater comes in lightly used, very good shape with no holes, tears or stains. Made in France.
Shipping from Japan to anywhere will be $26.
