About Bonpied

For years Sandrine went to meet the homeless every week during marauds in Paris. Gradually she realized that the garment they needed most is socks. By digging, it became clear that associations in contact with homeless people can only give what they collect and do not collect new and clean socks. In discussing with Catherine and Dominique, textile designers, came the idea of creating a brand according to the model of “A pair bought = a given pair”: Bonpied was born in 2019. The brand carries three core values: - solidarity: the socks given are entrusted to associations that help the homeless - manufacture in France - ecology (the given socks are from unsold other brands + a model made of recycled yarn + local manufacturing minimizing transport between manufacturing and use).Read their story
