The Lion's Cave is back

Since we were part of “Bataillon Belette” even in the 3rd season and secured a deal with our favorite lion Ralf Dümmel with our robust tights, we naturally follow the show with a personal interest.

Our problem solver: innovative and more durable tights

Who doesn't know this problem? The tights fit poorly, or slip down and quickly develop a run. The two designers Pia and Dan Buck from Bataillon Belette have finally found a solution for this.

The label was founded out of the necessity to finally find a sustainable solution for an everyday problem.During the 2-year development phase, the idea of a sustainable pair of tights was refined until it surpassed the quality of the usual tights available on the market. The Bataillon Belette is not only very robust but also comfortable and modern in its fit.

The comparatively complicated company name Bataillon Belette translates to 'Doll Troop' and aims to challenge our short-lived throwaway society and its products. The durability of the Bataillon Belette saves resources and thus produces less waste. Therefore, the product has fully arrived in our environmentally conscious consumer society and plays an important role there.

Durability test on the Vox show

The Bataillon Belette has already passed its first durability test on the Vox show 'Die Höhle der Löwen'. It withstood the attack with the wire brush. Since then, sales have increased a hundredfold. The tights are simply indestructible and thus sustainable, practical, and at 25 euros, they also offer good value for money. The waistband does not constrict the waist but comfortably rests on the hips, and the label is sewn on the outside to prevent the typical scratching on the skin.

Make-up skin tones and uniform blue

The product has also further developed.The tights, which were initially available only in black, are now also offered in two make-up skin tones and the uniform blue of the largest German airline. Additionally, the range has expanded.

The products are currently being manufactured with great attention to detail in Italy. Designers and managing directors Pia and Dan Buck personally ensure this on-site. There is surprisingly a lot of handwork involved in the production of the Bataillon Belette. After the legs are produced by a circular knitting machine, the individual parts are sewn together by hand. The company is headquartered in Frankfurt am Main.

The Bataillon Belette is now also available in retail. However, it can also be comfortably ordered directly from the company's online shop from home. Shipping is free for purchases over €50.It is available in 40 and 80Den. The sizes range from 32 to 48 and the color palette includes "Black", "Light Skin", "Tanned Skin", and "Aviation Blue". The hidden trademark is the embroidered little heart on the inside of the thigh.
