Founded in 1923 by Pierre Marchal in Pantin, France, Marchal quickly established itself as a leader in high-performance automotive lighting. The company's lamps and headlights were embraced by both automobile manufacturers and the aftermarket, but its reputation truly took off in 1926 when Marchal-backed competitors excelled in prestigious events such as the Monte Carlo Rally, Paris–Nice, the Rudge-Whitworth Cup, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. These victories showcased the durability and performance of Marchal's products, making the brand synonymous with quality among motorists and racers alike. Following World War II, Marchal expanded beyond lighting, adding a range of premium automotive electrical components, including its highly regarded spark plugs. By the 1950s, the company had become Europe's leading supplier of OEM and aftermarket electrical accessories, exporting its products around the globe. In 1961, Marchal celebrated the production of its five-millionth set of fog lamps, cementing its position as the world's largest manufacturer of automotive fog lights. Two years later, the company merged with S.E.V. (Société d'Équipements pour Véhicules), a major producer of distributors, windshield wipers, and other electrical equipment. The newly formed S.E.V. Marchal offered a comprehensive lineup of automotive components while continuing the tradition of producing some of the finest lighting systems in the world.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
