Genuine Marcel Tank Top - White

Our tank tops and singlets have a unisex, fitted cut.
For men, if you are between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size.
For women, choose your usual size.

They are close-fitting at first, but the knit quickly becomes more supple when worn and stretches slightly to provide ideal comfort. They are intentionally a little long, as they may shrink slightly after the first wash.

100% ribbed Pima cotton, 190 g/m²

Pima cotton is distinguished by its extra-long fibres, which give the knit a soft, silky feel and good resistance to wear.

Machine wash inside out with similar colours, following the temperature shown on the care label. Do not tumble dry. Iron inside out, following the care label instructions.

Made in France, in Roanne in the Loire region. All stages of production take place within a five-kilometre radius: knitting, dyeing, cutting and garment making.

The fabric is knitted by a specialist recognised for its expertise and awarded the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label. This partner also holds GOTS certification for its organic production.

Dyeing is carried out by a specialist certified to ISO 14001 for environmental management. It also holds OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certifications for certain treated textiles, covering testing for harmful substances.

Cutting and garment making are handled by local workshops, including an adapted enterprise that supports lasting employment for people with disabilities.

This local approach supports textile expertise and employment in the Roanne area.

The True White Marcel Tank Top

The True White Marcel returns to the familiar tank top shape in a ribbed Pima cotton knit. Its historic logo recalls an early identity of Tricots Marcel. This Archives version retains the soft feel of cotton and its French-made heritage in Roanne.

The True Marcel and its historic logo

This Archives reference retains the historic Tricots Marcel logo, a sign of the brand's former identity. It distinguishes the True from the current Marcel Signature. The tank top keeps its place between an undergarment and a top that is shown: it can remain discreet under a shirt or be worn alone, with the knit and logo clearly visible.

White reveals the ribs

On white, the texture of the knit and the design of the neckline are simply visible. The tank top can accompany raw denim jeans or join a lighter outfit, with differences in texture between the pieces. The historic logo provides the detail that distinguishes this True Marcel within the wardrobe.

The feel of Pima cotton

This model is made of 190 g/m² ribbed Pima cotton. Its extra-long fibers contribute to the softness of the knit and its resistance to wear. The ribs bring flexibility to the garment and a fine texture to its surface. A material that is particularly appreciated when the piece is worn directly on the skin.

The shape of the Marcel tank top

The neckline, straps, and armholes create a sleeveless shape that leaves the arms free. The ribbed knit brings flexibility to the bust. How it is worn also depends on the chosen fit: closer to the body for a first layer, or looser when you want to leave the tank top visible in the outfit.

The work of the Roanne workshops

This model is made in France, in Roanne. The knitting, dyeing, cutting, and sewing stages are gathered within a five-kilometer area. The work involves specialized partners, including a sheltered workshop for sewing. This local network is common to the Marcel Signature and the undershirts of the current range.
