1938 - 2025: 87 years of passion for our socks made in France

Since 1938, Maison Broussaud has embodied French textile excellence in the manufacture of high-end socks. Our story begins in the heart of Limousin, in the village of Les Cars, in Haute-Vienne. It was here that Henry Broussaud founded an artisanal knitting workshop, driven by a deep passion for textiles, yarn, and a job well done. This family tradition, passed down from generation to generation, is today synonymous with quality, authenticity, and responsible local production.

87 years of transmission and French textile know-how

For nearly nine decades, three generations of artisans have succeeded one another, maintaining a rare expertise. Each pair of socks made in our workshops is the result of a constant commitment to French craftsmanship and sustainability. While many sock brands have outsourced their production, we have chosen to remain true to our origins, preserving 100% French manufacturing. A pair of Broussaud socks is the guarantee of careful, local, and sustainable craftsmanship.


Socks for women and men, 100% made in France

Offering women's socks made in France and men's socks designed in France , in our own workshop, is a strong act. Each stage of production, from design to knitting, from quality control to finishing, is carried out in-house by qualified craftsmen. This manufacturing circuit allows us to guarantee impeccable quality, total traceability and a reduced environmental impact. Buying French socks means supporting local employment, encouraging the circular economy and favoring more responsible fashion.

Natural and certified materials for high-end socks

We select noble raw materials, chosen for their comfort, durability, and ethics. Our cotton socks OEKO-TEX ® STANDARD 100 CQ 1276/2, IFTH certified , our warm and breathable merino wool models or our socks in elegant and durable Scottish yarn are all designed to offer improved comfort. Thanks to our French and European partners committed to short supply chains, we guarantee sustainable, environmentally friendly products that are pleasant to wear every day.

A human and ethical commitment behind each pair of socks

Every women's or men's sock made in France is the result of the work of passionate women and men, eager to pass on their expertise and perpetuate a demanding textile tradition. It is these technical gestures, this daily rigor, and this pride in a job well done that make our company unique. Making socks in France also means defending an ethical vision of fashion and consumption.
