ABOUT SECRET SOCKCIETY

The members of the Secret Sockciety started this venture in 2023 with an ambitious idea - to improve transparency in the fashion industry through making a genuinely sustainable item of clothing. We all wear, need, and buy socks, and most Earthlings do not spend too much time thinking about them. We want to change this by providing customers with not only a beautifully designed, sustainable sock, but also through providing more information about the origin of their socks. What materials are your socks made of? Why are these materials (more) sustainable? Where do these materials come from? What kind of processes are involved in making the product that keeps your feet warm? We believe that providing the answer to such questions should be part of selling or buying any product, which is why the Secret Sockciety aims to set a new standard for transparency & sustainability when it comes to socks.

How are we planning to do this?

To achieve the shortest possible supply chain, all materials have to be grown, processed, manufactured, distributed, and sold in Europe. We have found a Ukrainian manufacturing partner for our sock designs, which is also part of our social mission - in supporting an economy that is in desperate need of investment. Alongside the proximity and length of the supply chain, the materials used to make the socks are of utmost importance. Luckily, there are numerous options for somewhat sustainable socks - we just have to dig deeper and try harder to continuously strive for the best available options in terms of impact. This is how the Secret Sockciety mission originated.

We have made sustainability our habit. It’s not something that we just strive for – we try to live by this principle every day in the considerations and choices we make. We are also involved in several other sustainability initiatives, and want to share knowledge and help other businesses make better choices. Need some help in understanding your business impact, and making more sustainable choices in the future? Feel free to contact us.
