Founded in 1882 by Émile Camuset in Romilly-sur-Seine, a hub of French hosiery, Le Coq Sportif is a brand built on a deep heritage of athletic apparel. Initially crafting jerseys for local cycling, football, and rugby clubs, the company grew to become a symbol of French sporting elegance. Its rooster logo, first appearing in 1948, became synonymous with major sporting events, most notably the Tour de France, where it supplied the iconic yellow jersey starting in 1951. The brand’s legacy is woven through historic moments in sport, outfitting the French national football and rugby teams, and being worn by legendary athletes like tennis player Arthur Ashe during his 1975 Wimbledon victory.
