About Us
géographie T was born in Chamonix Mont Blanc, France when Namaste Sport asked us to design a non-tourist T Shirt for the locals but with commercial appeal, not an easy brief! Taking the everyday road signs at the entry and exit of French towns as inspiration; we placed these on the front and back of the T Shirts creating an esoteric location-based design. From mountain resorts like Alpe d’Huez where the D211 is also the famous Tour de France stage, beach resorts like Saint Tropez and famous Grand Cru wine locations to the Le Mans 24 Hours series, a geographical theme was born and a brand with it, supplying quality apparel and quirky designs. Watch this space, sorry, location!
