Hutchinson
History
Reinventing ourselves for over 160 years
Established in 1853 by Hiram Hutchinson in Chalette-sur-Loing, Hutchinson first developed coated fabrics under the brand «Aigle».
In 1890, Hutchinson starts to produce bicycle tires. The company wins its first competition with Léon Georget in 1909 thanks to the ‘Monofil’ tire. The greatest names in the world of cycling then bring the brand to the highest level, with victories on the most famous races like the Tour de France.
In 2020, the company has celebrated the 130th anniversary of its Cycling History.
Hutchinson is the only bicycle tire company still manufacturing its products in France.
Highly advanced and technical tires can thus benefit of the best of Hutchinson’s R&D know-how and materials.

Our Manifesto
Our Manifesto
In a world that is increasingly constrained, in perpetual motion, and where time flies and lacks cruelly, refocusing on oneself, feeling oneself and free inside, are so many rare sensations, not to not to say exceptional. A real object of lust.
At Hutchinson, we believe in the rehabilitation of this time, this movement, this adrenaline, this moment of fulfillment and individual freedom.
More than a historical manufacturer and supplier of bicycle tires for leisure, sport, competition and mobility, we are the French Cycling Department, at the service of our users and their personal development.
This is why we work every day to offer them a unique riding experience, a moment of pure, raw emotion, that they will be able to experience fully, intensely, as they see fit, as they truly are.
A daily commitment with a single purpose: To offer everyone their “riding moment”.
A new era is coming.
Make way for the alliance of surpassing oneself and self-realization.
Make way for this winning duo that invites you to really listen to yourself, to express yourself fully, to live intensely.
Make way for the essential.
Make way for the truth, yours.
