OUR PARTNERS

Nothing would be possible without our incredible partners. These are the companies who we work with tirelessly and collectively to create the most planet friendly products.

Please join our journey. Here is more about our partners.

Merino Wool from Patagonia

Patagonia is twice the size of France. It has a population of 2 million people mostly located around the coast. It is incredibly unmechanised or polluted. The region is a wilderness of mountains and vast grasslands and an ideal habitat for the merino flocks that we use in our socks. All of our merino wool is certified mulesing-free. It is transported by sea to Europe where the merino wool is treated without the use of any nasty chlorine or bleach to be shrink-resistant. This eco-friendly Bluesign® certified process transforms our wool into a high performance yarn. We use merino wool in our ecoRUN, ecoHIKE and ecoSKI collections.

eco-MELTON™ Recycled Wool

Our recycled wool fabric is called eco-Melton™ is used for our apparel.

Melton is a process which dates back several hundred years to Melton Mowbray in England. Melton makes a very tightly woven, felted fabric that is windproof, highly water-repellant, breathable, naturally anti-microbial and extremely hardwearing with no pilling. 

What does this standard mean?

If a textile article carries the STANDARD 100 label, you can be certain that every component of this article has been tested for harmful substances and that the article therefore is harmless for human health. The test is conducted by our independent OEKO-TEX® partner. In many cases the limit values for the STANDARD 100 go beyond national and international requirements. The criteria catalogue is updated at least once a year and expanded with new scientific knowledge or statutory requirements.
