Repair and extend the life of your nautical sweaters with genuine thick knit elbow patches, knitted in our Breton workshop and matched to our iconic styles.
Sold in pairs, our wool elbow patches are designed for repairing worn areas at the elbows — or to preventively reinforce a sweater you cherish. This is the principle that has guided our workshop since 1986: repair rather than replace.
Made from thick 8-gauge knit, identical to that of our Petit Erquy, Erquy, and Faouët sweaters, they blend naturally with the original knit. Adult size 11.5 × 15.5 cm, available in 15 colors for a perfect match — tone-on-tone for a discreet repair, or contrasting in the Port Starboard style (red on the left, green on the right, like the sailors' code).
The elbow patches are sewn onto the garment, over worn or weakened areas. For a clean and durable result, have them sewn by hand or by a seamstress — or entrust them to our workshop: installation offered for any sweater made by us (see our elbow patch installation service).

Each piece is knitted with the same requirement, guaranteeing durability and timeless elegance .
A Successful Transmission
In 2019 , the arrival of Geoffroy and Lucie de Pinieux marked a turning point for Baie des Caps. Their goal? To make a brand known that had long remained confidential, while preserving its artisanal soul. Today, a team of 10 qualified artisans ensures the knitting and 100% French manufacture of our sailor sweaters.
