The Marinière Bousille "Vieille École" by FLEURS DE BAGNE is far more than a classic Breton shirt. It combines the rich history of the French marinière with the legendary tattoos of the Bagnards, sailors, and outsiders of the early 20th century. Inspired by historical convict uniforms and original tattoo archives, this exceptional garment tells stories of freedom, resistance, and identity.

The new color variant, Natural, gives the marinière a particularly authentic vintage character. The natural base tone is reminiscent of historical underwear and workwear from past decades and highlights the artistic "Bousille" graphics particularly impressively.

The marinière itself is one of the most famous symbols of French clothing history. Originally developed as workwear for the French navy, it later became a symbol of freedom, adventure, and the maritime lifestyle. FLEURS DE BAGNE reinterprets this classic and combines it with the historical tattoo motifs once worn by sailors, convicts, and vagrants.

Made from robust, high-quality cotton, the marinière offers a pleasant feel, high durability, and excellent wearing comfort. Its classic fit makes it a versatile companion for any season and a true statement piece for lovers of authentic heritage clothing.

Like almost all iconic pieces from FLEURS DE BAGNE, the Marinière Bousille is also made in France, representing genuine European craftsmanship, high-quality materials, and uncompromising quality.
