Sustainability

Quality Materials. Sustainable Process.

Choosy. Meticulous. Uncompromising. When it comes to our materials and manufacturing, these all apply. We start with the highest quality materials, like organic cotton that is dyed with low-impact dyes. Our certified organic cotton is grown on farms in the Southern U.S. by farmers we actually know. After harvest, our cotton travels to the Carolinas where it is spun and dyed before arriving at our mill in Alabama.
 
We knit socks in very small batches at our family owned and operated mill. Our team of ten (including Mom and Dad) run the manufacturing process from start to finish. And, because our entire operation is under one roof, we're able to constantly monitor quality through each step of the process, minimize waste and deliver a stellar product. We do it all because we know a better process makes a better sock. 
 
We like to keep it all close to home. Our packaging, labels and marketing materials are printed within a small radius of our mill in Alabama and Georgia. 

Giving and Recycling. Our irregular socks are donated to homelessness shelters and community organizations in Alabama.

We have some socks that are not fit for donations. These, along with any manufacturing waste, are repurposed or recycled. When recycled, these are transformed into fiber used for carpet padding in the automotive industry. 
 
We can recycle your old socks too! For more info, please see our zkano Recycles page.

    crew socks

    great fit and comfort! Have purchased similar socks that aren't even close to yours.
    ? Do you have similar dress socks that are thinner?

    As a side note- my vision is very limited and I have trouble reading your text, can you make it bolder,

    Perfect socks for my son!

    These socks are absolutely perfect for my 11 year old son!! These are the first organic socks that I have found that are thick and cushioned to his liking. And they are made in the USA which is so important to me! Very high quality, and I’m super impressed! Will definitely be buying more soon!

    Returning customer

    I found Zkano when I was searching for socks made in the USA. I found out the brand I previously purchased was not made in the USA. It is a priority for me to buy "made in America" products. However, not only are the socks made in the USA but the quality is outstanding!! I will never purchase socks elsewhere again. They are more expensive but last longer. Other cheap socks made outside the US were getting holes in the heals in like 3 months which is unacceptable to me.

    Loving these in black

    These socks in white are my go-to work socks in summer, (they’re good for tucking your jeans into them to deter chiggers and ticks) I like their fit so much I want to wear them with my winter boots too. Since black matches my winter clothes better, I’m thrilled to have a comfortable black pair.
