Les Tricots Marcel - Clothing Made in France

Les Tricots Marcel represent an iconic brand of French fashion. We offer a collection of clothing made in France, such as tank tops, T-shirts, sweaters, shirts, sweatshirts, beanies, and scarves. All our Made in France clothing for men and women is made from Pima cotton, organic cotton, or Merino wool.

Our iconic garment, the Marcel tank top, was born around 1860 when workers at Les Halles in Paris cut the sleeves off their sweaters for comfort. This tank top for women and men quickly adopted by workers, farmers, and soldiers, became a symbol of French style.

This innovative body knit traveled from Paris to Roanne, a small town in the Loire, where the Établissements Marcel, led by Marcel Eizenberg, decided to produce it. The popularity of the Marcel quickly grew, making it famous in France and abroad. In the 1950s, it was ubiquitous on beaches, symbolizing the first paid holidays, and made appearances on cinema screens in Europe and America.

In 2019, we decided to bring the production of Marcell back to France. Based in the heart of a region historically linked to the textile industry, in Roanne, we relaunched the manufacturing of this authentically made in France garment. Our local workshops are dedicated to creating high-quality clothing, made with carefully selected raw materials. Each men's and women's tank top, French origin, is made with untreated Pima cotton, offering softness and durability. Knitting, dyeing, and production are done in Roanne, France.

We offer a varied range of ultra-comfortable Made in France clothing for men and women, including Marcel tank tops, bodysuits, T-shirts, sweatshirts, shirts, wool sweaters, beanies, scarves, as well as sports bags and other accessories. Our products are designed to be worn daily, reflecting fashionable, sustainable, and responsible fashion. You can wear your tank top solo, with a jacket, or an overshirt. Then pair it with blue pants, blue jeans, or a dress. Our experienced seamstresses, trained on-site, handle every step of production, ensuring exceptional quality. Our approach aims to maintain an ethical production model respectful of humans and the environment.

Our Made in France brand stands out for its commitment to responsible production. We use organic and recycled materials for our clothing, and each item is crafted with the utmost care. Our company, the Établissements Marcel, represents not only a part of the history of French fashion but also an example of quality and expertise. Our clothing made from Pima/bio cotton or Merino wool is made to last, combining tradition and innovation in every creation.

By bringing production back to France, we have not only created local jobs but also guaranteed complete traceability of our products. This transparency in our manufacturing process strengthens our customers' trust and ensures that every French garment is made fairly and responsibly in a workshop in Roanne.

We continue to look to the future by offering innovative collections that respect our heritage while meeting the modern demands of Made in France fashion. Whether it’s a tank top, a sweater, or a bodysuit, each piece that our brand offers embodies elegance and French quality. Les Tricots Marcel is much more than just a French garment; it’s a committed story of passion, tradition, trend, and excellence, made in France.
