Not just any socks but Zero Waste Socks are now available from Switcher in limited edition.

Consisting of 60% Post Industrial Cotton Waste, 32% Recycled Polyester and 8% Spandex, waste and scraps have been recycled to create these vibrant socks made from recycled cotton combined with recycled polyester.

Our socks are "Dope-Dyed" a dyeing technique typical of recycled fabrics. This process allows the dyeing to be done by hot transfer without immersion in water.

  • 99% water savings along the entire production chain
  • 54% less energy consumption along the entire production chain
  • 50% Less waste
  • 20% less CO2 emission
