Global Recycled StandardNamed after the resourceful Art Attack presenter, "The Buchanan" socks in bottle green with vanilla yellow accents bring a creative flair to your everyday essentials. Socko focuses on tackling textile waste head-on, transforming discarded materials into high-quality, comfortable footwear built to endure.
These socks are crafted from 90% reclaimed cotton sourced directly from UK mills, giving new life to yarn that would otherwise go to waste. The addition of ECONYL® regenerated nylon enhances their durability, making them a long-lasting choice for your wardrobe.
Made in a family-run factory in Leicestershire, each pair reflects Socko's commitment to quality and local production. True to their ethos of extending product life, every pair comes with a needle and thread, encouraging you to repair rather than replace, much like Neil Buchanan would craft something new from the old.
