Eco-Friendly Socks and Clothing Recycling
We send you sustainably-made socks when you want them.
We give you an easy way to get rid of your worn ones: send them back for recycling.
Wear. Recycle. Repeat. Welcome to the Basic Revolution!
Get Great Socks and Reduce Your Waste!
Here are the basic problems we want to solve:
Problem one: you wear your hole-y socks for too long because "omg, didn't I just replace them?"
Yeah, we know you do this. We do it too.
Problem two: you wish you could donate your worn-out basics, but you can’t because eewww!
So you have to throw them out and they end up in a big, hole-y landfill. We do it too.
Time for a revolution? Hole yeah!
This one comes in a box. Which is pretty contained as far as revolutions go.

The Environmental Impact of Old Clothing
Most textile waste comes from post-consumer goods (aka the stuff we wear).
In 2015, the US generated 16 million tons of textile waste.
That’s a 275% increase from 5.8 million tons of textile waste generated in 1990. What the sock?!
Only about 15% of the clothing we wear makes it to another human to use or is recycled.
The average American throws out 80 lbs of clothing per year.
Our mission is to help keep textiles out of the landfill. Click here to learn more about textiles waste and how to reduce it.
