9 Brands Making Snuggly Organic Cotton & Bamboo Socks
The Good Trade editors endorse products we’ve personally researched, tested, and genuinely love. Learn more about our methodology and business model here.
As we move away from sundresses and flip flops (see ya later summer!), we’re turning towards all things cozy, including oversized sweaters, soft scarves, and the warmest socks we can find.
With regular socks, we find that they have holes after just a few wears or can be a bit scratchy, especially if they were made with artificial fabrics. Instead, we deserve comfy and conscious natural socks to keep our toes toasty and our skin soothed.
The below brands offer organic cotton, recycled wool, and bamboo socks that are as healthy for your feet as they are for the planet. And if you’re looking for even more comfort, head here for our guide to eco-friendly slippers.
(P.S.: Working on some light holiday shopping? With many pairs starting at just $5–7, they’re equally thoughtful gifts and stocking stuffers… that will actually last.)
