Le Bonnet

About Le Bonnet

Le Bonnet is a Dutch accessories brand, designed in Amsterdam, that makes wool beanies, scarves and bandanas. It started when Matthieu Jansen couldn't find the beanie he wanted, so he contacted the Scottish factory behind his favourite and ordered twenty samples. His former roommate Vasco de Vries joined him soon after. Everything is made in a single Scottish mill that has been running for 180 years, using wool spun in England, and each beanie passes through 14 pairs of hands. Nothing is synthetic. What began as one design is now eight shapes in a palette running from quiet neutrals to bright colours. The Queen of Denmark once wrote to ask for a replacement after losing her blue one.
