SUSTAINABILITY
DESIGN + PRODUCTION
a sustainable approach
Monkey Sox is sustainable at all levels of our business.
We design with a conscious approach, considering every aspect of the sock to balance style, performance and quality. We admit to being geeky about socks and love the development process!
Monkey Sox are crafted by a team of experts in Braga, a beautiful historic town north of Porto. Monkey Sox are made on circular knitting machines, then linked, steamed and packaged by hand.
The factory are committed to sustainabilty, quality and innovation. We order in small batches and only re-order when we are close to selling out, so we do not accumulate large stocks or waste.
Each year we donate our development samples to a good cause to minimise waste and put each pair of socks to full use.
SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING
100% RECYCLABLE
We take pride in making every order that we send personal and a pleasure to receive. Each order comes carefully wrapped with a handwritten note, so receiving Monkey Sox is always a gift, whether you are treating yourself or someone else.
Even better, our packaging is from recycled sources and 100% recyclable!
* Our notecards are printed on recycled FSC certified paper stock and fully recyclable.
* Monkey Sox are tacked with a cotton thread rather than a plastic tack.
* Our famous orange envelopes are made from recycled corrugated cardboard.
* Our tissue paper is fully recyclable thanks to a machine glazed finish.
