Les Benjamins drops new tennis collection

JULY 12, 2023 → WORDS ADRIÁN GOMIS EXPÓSITO

Istanbul-based streetwear brand Les Benjamins presents a new collection of design-led tennis wear that pays homage to Türkiye’s rich sporting history, which began in Istanbul’s Tarabya neighborhood in the 1800s, and tennis legends.

Known for its creative and luxurious streetwear, and having a growing influential roster of collaborators and supporters, the startling collection features 27 menswear and womenswear pieces with designs that reference the classic tennis looks, from polo shirts to the iconic pleated tennis skirts and sports shorts, alongside contemporary, quintessentially Les Benjamins-style pieces like bomber jackets and graphic branded t-shirts. The collection’s central colors are white, black, and green, reminiscent of manicured lawns, hardcourts, and traditional tennis attire, delivered through traditional, classic court styles with creative new designs. 

Some key pieces for menswear include the sleek black Jeffrey Tracksuit, the striped William Rugby Polo, the tan William Bomber Jacket, and the ‘Les Benjamins Sports Club’ T-shirts. For womenswear, the Margaret Tech Polo, which is cropped for added appeal and modernity, the functional and flattering Margaret Bra, and the stylish white Sandy Dress with a polo neck and pleated skirt are some classic highlights of the collection. 

Les Benjamins’ new tennis collection is available now at lesbenjamins.com, with the brand also partnering with Turkish tennis stars Altug Celikbilek and Ipek Oz to highlight the message and homage to the sport.
