Do you offer organic socks?

Yes! Any of our cotton socks can be made with organic cotton. Our most popular options for organic are crew socks in dress or athletic. We also have our eco-luxe socks which are made from recycled wool.

How is Sockrates working to improve its carbon footprint?

We are very committed to reducing our impact on the planet. When we first started our custom sock exploration, it was one of the main reasons we chose to make our socks in Italy. The environmental standards in Italy are well documented as well as their ethical standards for workers. You can also read more about how we collect all of our wasted threads in order to make new products, preventing tons of waste from landing up in landfills.

What role does sustainability play in guiding product design?

All of our custom socks are made with sustainability in mind, and we are committed to making sure any new products we offer meet, or excel those standards. Our most recent example is our Eco-Luxe Socks which are made from GRS recycled wool, and we also offer DTG eco-friendly custom socks with recycled polyester.

What is Oeko-Tex?

OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 is a label for textiles tested for harmful chemicals. It sets the benchmark for textile safety, from yarn to finished product. Every item bearing the STANDARD 100 label is certified as having passed safety tests for the presence of harmful substances. You can read more about Oeko -Tex 100 here.

Why are custom socks a more sustainable promotional product?

Promotional products can easily become throw away products, which is what makes custom socks so unique. They have a very long shelf life (with frequent wear up to 6 years), OSFM options means that there are generally no unworn sizes, and they are made of 80% cotton which is a biodegradable material.

Are sustainable materials more expensive for custom socks?

Eco-friendly socks don’t cost more. The sustainability comes from responsible factory practices, which helps keep the price down, such as skipping unnecessary prewashing and recycling waste during production.

Can I choose eco-friendly fibers for my branded socks?

Yes! You can choose options like organic cotton and other sustainable fibers, including various eco-friendly materials, so your custom branded socks reflect both your style and your environmental values.
