WELCOME TO THE NEW AND REFINED LES

We’re excited to introduce the new and elevated version of LES, inspired by our journey at Sportles.com. This FAQ is designed to help you navigate our refined wholesale approach, seasonal collections, and partnership opportunities, so you can make the most of our products and services.

We have discontinued our curated activewear partnerships, and all operations have now been consolidated at our headquarters in the United States.

FAQ

OUR BUSINESS EVOLUTION

After nearly 10 years in the direct-to-consumer e-commerce space, we are transitioning to a new business model. As we refine our assortment and restructure our approach, we are now focusing on a wholesale system that delivers the most impact for LES at this stage.

We are actively developing this model and are fortunate to be working with amazing partners who are helping shape the future of LES.

At SPORTLES, we’re entering an exciting new chapter. As we continue to grow, our focus is shifting toward a refined wholesale model designed to strengthen our relationships with key partners and streamline how our collections are experienced and purchased.

Here’s what’s new:

  • Flagship Partnerships: We will maintain select, high-profile retail partnerships where customers can continue to shop our curated collections in person.
  • Wholesale Focus: Our primary business model will now center on wholesale. Retailers can purchase directly through our Lookbook and Linesheets.
  • Seasonal Showrooms: We’ll host seasonal showroom appointments to preview our new collections, core styles, and upcoming product launches.
  • Curated Access: Product availability will be limited to ensure exclusivity and alignment with our brand vision.

This evolution allows us to deliver a more personalized and premium experience—both for our partners and the communities they serve.

We believe that premium activewear shouldn’t come with a premium price tag. After spending two dedicated years sourcing, testing, and designing, our mission remains simple — to offer beautiful, high-quality products made for movement.

As part of our wholesale pricing structure, we provide a suggested MSRP, while giving our partners the flexibility to adjust pricing up to 20% to account for import duties and VAT.

  • Minimum Order Value: A minimum order of 1,500 is required, which typically equals 30–40 units.
  • Style Representation: For a complete brand presentation, we recommend ordering 5–10 units per style, across sizes S–XL (sizes S–L required).

This ensures a balanced assortment and proper representation of the LES brand in your retail space.

We also encourage the purchase of the black matt hangers to match the elevated look of the product.

Seasonal Schedule: Orders align with the seasonal fashion calendar.

Showroom Appointments & Previews: We host showroom appointments and collection previews once per quarter.
