The Unisex Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt by Tricots Marcel in 100% Organic Cotton, Short Sleeves, Round Neck
With its khaki and ecru stripes, this undershirt opens up a more natural, more mineral path, bridging the gap between underwear heritage and the obviousness of worn clothing.
A Striped Unisex Undershirt, between Natural and Affirmation
The Khaki Ecru Striped Unisex Undershirt is for those who love simple pieces that are never understated. It carries the DNA of the Tricots Marcel undershirt: a closeness to the skin, a clean line, a way of expressing style without forcing it. Here, the stripes do not seek a nautical effect or nostalgia. They take a more earthy, more instinctive, more contemporary direction.
Its unisex cut adapts to bodies without confining them to a predefined wardrobe. It allows everyone to appropriate the piece according to their figure, their style, their mood. Worn close to the body, this Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt provides a neat look, while maintaining essential flexibility. It can be slipped under a work jacket, paired with wide-leg trousers, elevate raw denim, or tone down a dressier piece.
On a masculine silhouette, it brings a form of elegant utility, almost military in spirit, but softened by the ecru and the material. On a feminine silhouette, it creates a more discreet, less expected sensuality, with that graphic softness inherent in the fine stripe. Unisex, it erases nothing: it opens up possibilities.
It's an everyday piece, yet full of character. An undershirt that retains the memory of underwear, while fully embracing its role as clothing.
Khaki Ecru: A Calmer, More Organic Stripe
The Khaki Ecru color gives the Striped Undershirt a different presence than the more classic versions. Khaki brings a natural depth, both sober, modern, and slightly raw. Ecru illuminates it, making it softer, easier, almost luminous. Together, they create a balanced stripe, less contrasted than a navy, more subtle than a burgundy, but with a true personality.
This Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt naturally pairs with everyday materials: canvas, denim, wool, cotton, aged leather. It dialogues with sand, beige, off-white, brown, grey, black, or raw blue tones. It can take on a very urban look under a dark jacket, be more relaxed with light trousers, or more graphic worn alone with a high-waisted piece.
Khaki has the quiet strength of colors that don't shout. It gives structure to the silhouette, introduces a nuance, adds character without diverting all attention. In this ecru version, it becomes softer, more open, almost meditative.
At Tricots Marcel, color is not just an adornment. It sets a rhythm, an intention, a way of relating to the garment. Khaki Ecru tells a story of less obvious, more personal elegance, made for those who prefer accuracy to effect.
The Striped Undershirt in 100% Organic Cotton, Made in France
Crafted from 100% Organic Cotton, the Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt favors a natural, breathable material that is pleasant to wear against the skin. In an undershirt, the material is never secondary: it is the first contact, the one felt even before seeing the piece.
Organic cotton offers a supple, honest feel, without heaviness. It accompanies daily movements, allows air to circulate, and maintains a comfortable fit through repeated wear. Its softness is not fragile: it is designed to last, to withstand washing, to retain its place in the wardrobe without losing its balance.
Made in France, this Striped Undershirt is part of Tricots Marcel's commitment: to uphold controlled manufacturing, to value textile expertise, and to offer meaningful basics. The garment is not designed for one season or a fleeting effect. It is conceived as a fundamental piece, capable of traversing uses, layering, and years.
Comfort and durability converge here in the same idea: to do simple, but to do it right. Beautiful cotton, a clear cut, careful manufacturing, an obvious fit. The Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt doesn't need to overdo it. Its value is revealed over time, through contact with the body, in the way it naturally returns to outfits.
Short Sleeves and Round Neck: An Essential, Straightforward Form
The shape of the Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt is based on a round neck and short sleeves. A direct, almost obvious construction that gives the piece its balance: close enough to the body to retain the undershirt spirit, yet assertive enough to be worn as a standalone garment.
The round neck subtly frames the neckline. The short sleeves define the shoulder without rigidity. The close-fitting cut follows the silhouette but does not seek to constrain it. It gives a clean drape, a simple presence, a neat look. It's a shape that is immediately understood, but which gains character when worn.
This Khaki Ecru Striped Undershirt can be worn under an open shirt, under a mid-season jacket, under light knitwear, or alone when the piece needs to take center stage. It works equally well in a very casual outfit as in a more composed silhouette. Its strength comes from this discreet versatility: it doesn't transform an outfit, it refines it.
Neither an ordinary t-shirt nor an expected marinière, it occupies a special place. More intimate, closer to the body, more distinctive in its intention. An essential piece, but not neutral.
