Over time we have been collecting left-over knitwear pieces from our production runs and cutting them into smaller pieces, which we send to our Wellington spinner. There, they are shredded down and given a second life in the form of a new yarn. The recycling process is completely water and dye free. The stunning colours of these unique new yarns are derived naturally from the colours of our offcuts. The result is our one-of-a-kind Waste Socks made with offcuts from our natural fibre blends, so you can feel good and stay ultra cosy. All of this work is helping us move towards our goal of zero textile waste to landfill by 2024.

  • Made from our exclusive blend of Raw Merino Fibre, Natural Recycled Materials, with nylon added for durability.
  • Unisex
  • Made with yarn scraps saved from landfill
  • Made in New Zealand
  • Available in S - M - L
  • Style no. 0597

Due to hygiene reasons, socks cannot be returned for a change of mind or incorrect size purchases. Exchanges are only possible if the socks are in their original packaging and have never been worn.
