Brighton based Morvélo is a new clothing label that creates bike-mixed-with-pop culture t-shirts aimed at those who love to ride. Oli Pepper and Dave Marcar are the duo behind Morvélo. Graphic designers by corporate day, lovers of all things bike in the rest of their lives, they have drawn on 25 years of riding and racing everything from mountain biking to track, road and cyclocross racing and mixed them with their collective decades of design experience for youth and entertainment markets to produce the unique t-shirts that became the collectible ‘must haves’ for riders at events through this summer.
Oli explains, “We want to show our passion for bikes even when we’re not in cycling gear and this range that references not only bike culture, but popular culture too, expresses the simple joy of riding and just how great bikes are.”
Origin 68 have a nice new tee. “The French aren’t stupid. When they don’t like stuff they get up off their arses and kick up a stink about it. In fact, they’ll pretty much go on strike before you can say “improved workers conditions”. May 1968 was one of those iconic moments where the people came together and took on the powers that control them and through not inconsiderable sacrifice changed things for the better. We made a tshirt about it. It translates into English as ‘Fight The Power’.”
