Virgin wool has a costly environmental impact - from the vast amount of land it takes to raise sheep, to the water and chemical usage during production and dyeing - it’s not the most friendly fabric. But recycled wool is fortunately a heck of a lot different - that’s because we completely cut out the dyeing process, saving water and chemicals and eliminating nasty wastewater entirely.

In Braga, Portugal - our recycled wool sock maker has been in business since 1985 making socks and knitwear with the most advanced robotic equipment possible. They can an incredible focus on sustainability and workplace ethics - and they are very well certified in all respects environmental and social. In fact, their factory is 100% run on renewable resources.
