The Socks and Tees You’ll Be Obsessed With

I stumbled upon Le Bon Shoppe socks and tees just like every other Le Bon fan: serendipitously.

This LA-based wardrobe staples company isn’t on a mission to be seen everywhere. Au contraire, Le Bon wants to be discovered where their core consumer is: browsing at independently-owned, curated stockists throughout the country on any given day. Le Bon makes the kind of soft, warm-colored socks and tees that magnetically lure you to whatever table they’re sprawled upon, simply because they ooze a natural aura of cool and comfortable.

Founded by two fashion industry veterans, the creation of all Le Bon pieces are centered around the principles of slow fashion. They create a limited quantity of pieces at a time to decrease waste and make sure that they never roll out any collection in excess. With a relaxed and mindful approach, this brand is hard not to love.

My Le Bon discovery happened one day in March when I popped into Long Weekend in Livingston Manor in the Catskills. I bought my first pair of gateway socks and have been hooked ever since! As such: here’s a quick review of some of my favorite new essentials from Le Bon.


Girlfriend Socks

But seriously, how cute are these Girlfriend Socks? They’re like the modernized version of your old socker socks. Pair these crew socks with kicks and you’re good to go!

Organic Boy Tee

Meet your new favorite t-shirt, made from 100% organic cotton. This slightly boxy, vintage faded tee actually fits perfectly. It’s long enough to wear with leggings but can also be tucked into jeans for a cute and simple vibe.

Cloud Socks

Lean into the cozy slipper-like sock with these terry Cloud Socks. They’re super comfy, thick and generally feel delightful on your feet.

Her Tee

Your second staple tee: Her Tee! With a dropped shoulder and loose fit, it’s a slimming tee made to tuck in, tuck out or tie at the waist.

Boyfriend Socks

Last but not least, the cutest damn calf-length socks I’ve ever seen. Le Bon’s Boyfriend Socks simply elevate an entire outfit.
