I don’t agree, Dimitris.
Indeed, navy cotton fades remarkably more than other colours but this is/can be part of its charm.
It may be argued that it is a falatia ad populum but my old Neapolitan tailor who is serving equally old Neapolitan gentlemen always has navy cotton or linen suits to be tried on when I visit him.

How can I upset old Neapolitan gentlemen!
But, our fellow @Jmr928 is neither old, nor Neapolitan!!!
In all truth, there may be a charm there, but in my - old - book, the fabric(s) where blue & navy are best represented are either pure, or mix of wool / cashmere in all weights.
Cotton finds a splendid pairing with beige / sand and military green.
Best,
Dimitris
