Famous for their attention to quality, Armor Lux was founded in 1939 in Brittany, a location known as being the birthplace for the Breton, a piece of clothing issued to all seamen stationed in Brittany. Originally made from protective wool, the striped design was created so anyone who fell overboard could be seen in the water and saved and was later emulated across more fashion driven pieces where it has remained in circulation ever since.
