Collegien Story

A family-run business, Collegien was founded by the Guilles family. The Guilles have been running their hosiery factory in Briatexte, a small village in southwest France, for over a century. In 1947, two of the Guilles brothers, Robert and Alain, decided to add a soft rubber sole to socks, and voila, the first slipper sock was born, and with it, the brand Collegien. Since its creation, Collegien has established itself as a much-loved French brand offering a range of men's, women's, and kids' socks, tights and knitted accessories, as well as their iconic slipper socks.

While the Collegien business has been operating since the '40s, it was in 2007 that Olivier Guille, the founder's great-grandchild, decided to restyle the famous slipper sock and, in doing so taking the brand international. The slipper sock we know and love today is a favourite amongst parents due to its innovative non-slip design paired with its fun style, vivid colours, and absolute comfort.

Collegien Socks

It is Collégien slipper socks that have made the brand iconic. The innovative slipper socks have a rubber sole with micro holes that provide extra grip so your little one won't fall over, as well as ensure breathability to help regulate heat. Collegien non-slip socks can be worn indoors or outdoors, and even better, they are also machine washable.

Collegien Slipper Socks are perfect for the whole family, coming in a range of colours and prints for you to choose from. Comfortable and oh so cosy, Collegien Slipper socks are ethically made in France, using a soft cotton blend made from recycled cotton. Collegien slipper socks are the most comfortable socks you will find, making them a favourite for kids aged 0 right up to 18 years old to wear around the home!

Along with their iconic slipper socks, Collegien also sells everyday socks and tights made of the finest Egyptian cotton, cashmere, silk, or extra-soft lurex. With Collegien everyday socks, it is the details that make them stand out, with many of the socks coming with delicate finishing such as lace and ribbons.
