Read more SUSTAINABILITY Darn Tough\naims to improve the well-being of our community by locally designing and\nmanufacturing the most comfortable, durable, best fitting socks while\ncontinuously reducing our environmental impacts. MATERIALS IN OUR SOCKS Every\nmaterial we use in our socks has been carefully chosen and tested to meet our\nrigorous durability standards. We currently use natural and synthetic fibers,\nand only 3 types of fiber per sock. As you’d expect, we are actively\ninvestigating and testing new fibers and yarn blends that do not appear in our\ncurrent products. We’ve prioritized Merino wool throughout our product lines\nand our goal of producing the most responsibly made product is reflected in\nour commitment to the success of the Responsible Wool Standard. MERINO WOOL\nMerino wool is the most important and relied upon fiber in our products and\naccounted for 56% of our yarn consumption by weight last year. For many years\nwe’ve prioritized the use of Merino wool exclusively from sheep that have not\nbeen exposed to the practice of mulesing. In early 2019 we made a commitment\nto support the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) and shift 100% of our wool\nsupply to RWS-certified Merino wool. RWS is a voluntary standard with strict\nguidelines to protect animal welfare and adhere to progressive, sustainable\nfarm and land management practices while maintaining traceability throughout\nthe entire supply chain. Although the market share for RWS is only estimated\nat ~1% of global wool production, the number of certified sources has grown\nsubstantially over the last couple years. Today, 100% of the wool we procure\nis RWS-certified. RECYCLED NYLON We use REPREVE, a nylon 6 fiber made from\npre-consumer industrial waste that would otherwise be landfilled or\ndowncycled. Using REPREVE instead of virgin nylon allows us to offset the use\nof crude oil, benzene, cyclohexane, and other harmful hydrocarbons that are\ninvolved in the production of virgin fiber. In short, using recycled nylon\nconserves energy and water and reduces greenhouse gas emissions from\nmanufacturing. While we aim to reduce our use of virgin nylon in our products,\nrecycled nylon only accounted for 4% of our nylon consumption last year. We’re\nactively working with our suppliers to source more recycled nylon so we can\nincorporate it across our product lines. To date, nylons generated from pre-\nconsumer waste material have held up well against our durability requirements,\nbut we’d like to find an equally good source of post-consumer recycled nylon\nor yarns that blend both pre and post-consumer nylon. SPANDEX\/ELASTANE We use\nLycra to provide elasticity, strength, and form-fitting comfort. While spandex\naccounts for no more than 5% of the fiber used in our finished product, it\nrepresented 27% of the raw materials we procured last year. Like conventional\nnylon, spandex is derived from petroleum and has been important to the\nperformance of our products. Unfortunately, it’s the most difficult material\nin our fiber mix to replace with a recycled alternative. When it comes to\nsynthetics, we’re primarily focused on converting virgin nylon and polyester\nto recycled alternatives. However, we’re also looking for functional, recycled\nspandex alternatives.

STILL MADE IN VERMONT, USA After so\nmany decades why do we still knit every pair of our socks here in Vermont? We\ndon’t do it because it’s the easy thing to do—we do it because it’s the right\nthing to do. We do it because for us, it’s the only way to do it. There are\nfaster and cheaper alternatives but nobody ever outsourced anything for\nquality. ONE FAMILY - We are family owned.
