Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Edmund Breton Top is a refined interpretation of the classic nautical aesthetic, designed specifically for professional environments that require a balance of style and practicality. Constructed from 100% cotton, this short-sleeved top offers a sophisticated alternative to standard workwear, providing a clean, crisp appearance that remains comfortable throughout the working day.
Key Features
- 100% Cotton fabric provides exceptional breathability and a soft touch against the skin, making it ideal for long shifts.
- The ribbed neckline is engineered to retain its shape, ensuring the garment looks professional even after multiple washes.
- Twin needle stitching on the hem and cuffs provides reinforced strength to the most active areas of the garment, preventing fraying.
- The classic White and Navy striped pattern offers a timeless look that is both professional and approachable.
Design & Performance
Performance in workwear is often measured by how a garment handles the rigours of daily use. The Edmund Breton Top utilises a pure cotton construction which excels in moisture management, keeping the wearer cool in warmer environments. The fabric weight is substantial enough to feel durable while remaining light enough for comfortable layering.
The technical detailing, such as the twin needle stitching, isn't just for show; it ensures that the seams remain secure under tension. The ribbed neckline provides the necessary elasticity for ease of movement without the garment becoming misshapen over time, maintaining the sharp silhouette expected of a Brook Taverner product.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is perfectly suited for both print and embroidery, allowing you to align it with your corporate identity. Embroidery is highly recommended for those wanting a traditional, high-quality finish for company logos or staff names, providing a durable and textured look that complements the cotton weave.
For larger, more vibrant branding, our printing services offer a smooth and precise finish. All customisation is handled in-house at our Telford facility, where our team—backed by expertise dating back to 1976—ensures your branding is applied with the highest level of technical accuracy.
Use Cases
The Edmund Breton Top is a versatile choice for a variety of sectors. It is particularly effective for front-of-house staff in hospitality, boutique retail teams, or as part of a smart-casual uniform for corporate events. Its nautical heritage also makes it a natural fit for maritime and leisure industries.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider that 100% cotton has less stretch than synthetic blends, so referring to our size guide is recommended for the best fit. This top pairs exceptionally well with dark chinos or formal trousers for a cohesive, professional appearance.
Caring for your product
To maintain the vibrant contrast of the White and Navy stripes, this garment is machine washable. Regular washing at appropriate temperatures ensures that the natural cotton fibres remain clean and the garment remains hygienic for daily wear.
We recommend avoiding the use of bleach, as this can damage the integrity of the cotton fibres and cause the navy stripes to fade prematurely. When drying, it is best to avoid high heat to prevent any natural shrinkage, ensuring your garment maintains its original fit and professional look over its lifespan.
