Istanbul-based streetwear label Les Benjamins is continuing to place its heritage under the spotlight, seeing founder Bünyamin Aydın blur the lines of Turkish tradition and contemporary functionality.

Wimbledon is in full swing, and Les Benjamins is stepping onto its competitive courts with the right foot forward. The brand embraces popular tennis culture through its new sports collection, paying tribute to Turkish court history through clean co-ed designs.

Istanbul’s Tarabya neighborhood greatly influences local tennis rituals, igniting the first official tournament on local grounds in the 1800s. The “Challenge Cup” became Turkey’s most significant match and has nurtured countless legends, including Çağla Büyükakçay and İpek Soylu.

Les Benjamins’ tennis collection delivers simplistic uniforms destined for on-court rivalry, featuring “Les Benjamins Tennis Club”-branded tees and tracksuits. The brand sticks to tennis shade regulations through all-white collared tanks, pleated skirts, crewnecks, and bottoms. Finally, black interpretations, blue striped shirting, and green player tops outline Les Benjamins’ rebellious attitude on and off the court.

Take a closer look at Les Benjamins’ new tennis collection in the gallery above. It is available to shop in-store and online via the brand’s website.

Elsewhere, the adidas Superstar XLG is for dynamic boundary-breakers.
