MARINIERE: A French word meaning "sailor's clothing," and is a French word used to refer to horizontally striped marine border tops. What exactly is the true marine border that has been passed down from generation to generation in France, the holy land of marine borders? While various theories emerged, we finally arrived at KANELL INDUSTRIEL. It is said that there are "meanings" and "constraints" to the number of borders that decorate a marine border.
Napoleon Bonaparte is a French hero who still has many admirers. A record of 36 consecutive wins left by the hero who created the foundation of modern tactics. In 1858, when the French army officially adopted the uniform for lower-ranking soldiers, they paid homage to the French hero Napoleon's record of consecutive victories by placing ``21 borders on the body and 15 on the sleeves,'' which totaled 15 consecutive victories. It is said that the official marine border was defined as 36, the same number as the record.
However, there was one aspect of the implementation of this regulation that caused producers to cry. Clothes come in different sizes, so there is a difference of more than 20cm in length between a size XS worn by a woman and an XL worn by a strong man. The width of all the borders had to be adjusted, which required a lot of effort (to arrange the 36 borders in a well-balanced manner on bodies of different sizes). KANELL INDUSTRIEL, which was founded in 1923 in Brittany, which is said to be the birthplace of the French border, takes advantage of the characteristics of its flat knitting machine and finely adjusts the pitch of the border to create " Reproducing the true Marinière. Despite the efficiency of modern clothing manufacturing, we offer you the ``true French marine border,'' which was said to be impossible to produce.
